How to remove or convert a deceased's Facebook into a commemorative profile

What happens to a family's Facebook profile after his death? And with your personal email? E-mail accounts are easy; Hotmail is automatically disabled after thirty days of inactivity, like Yahoo. However, during these last two years, social networks have achieved that many of us are connected day after day sharing our photographs and thoughts ... In short, we have created a parallel online life that, like us, should one day pass away. If you still do not know how to remove or convert a deceased's Facebook into a commemorative profile, we'll explain it step by step.

You will need to:
  • A computer.
  • Internet access.
Steps to follow:

one

Go to the page that Facebook has created to inform about the profile of a deceased person.

two

You must provide your email address to Facebook, as the company will contact you shortly or you will need to verify your identity.

3

Provide the personal data of the deceased so they can delete or make a commemorative profile with their personal account. You will have to write your first and last name, your email address and the URL of your profile.

4

Communicate what relationship you had with the user. Remember that, in order to eliminate your profile, you must be a direct relative (spouse, father, mother, brother or son).

5

Add the proof of death as, for example, the address of a newspaper article or its obituary.

Tips
  • Some companies offer digital inheritance service; they keep passwords and user names of their clients to reveal them to the people indicated after their death.
  • The "memorializing" of Facebook, or commemorative profile, consists in the elimination of the profile, leaving a wall for messages.
  • Keep in mind that, for business policy, Faceboko leaves for a while the profile of a deceased as a tribute before eliminating it.
