Scenario

When strangers memorialize your family member online before you do

I found out my brother overdosed when someone tagged him in a Facebook post saying rest in peace and now his wall is full of people I have never met sharing memories while our family has said nothing.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Social media can create competing narratives around death that challenge family control over how a loved one is remembered.
