"Professional. Knowledgeable. Compassionate. Every question was answered straight away, and all the formalities were handled without fuss. The funeral ceremony was organised down to the last detail."

About this experience
Goodbye on Facebook
Everyone can take part Someone who travelled widely and explored the world will probably have formed many friendships and welcomed special people into their life along the way. When that person dies, not everyone can always attend the funeral service, which can be painful for those left behind. Our concept involves carefully reviewing the deceased person's "friends list" on Facebook, sending invitations and letting people know about an online live stream hosted there. There are many creative ways to shape the live event around the life of this traveller. These might include slideshows drawn from photographs in which they were tagged, or short memorial videos in which each invited guest can speak. Every meeting and every meaningful moment, however small, can be honoured, and everyone can be included.

Translated from the original German
"A huge thank you to the Bestattungsportal staff, whose flawless organisation gave Grandma a dignified farewell. It was exactly as we had imagined it."
