Why am I finding this so hard. Seeing his name hurts but deleting it is so final.

I think Facebook is very bad for this too...but I love seeing my late brother's comments from when he was alive. It brings a smile to my face as if he's still here!

You can go to settings in your Facebook account and nominate someone to deal with your account when you pass away. You can also include your digital content, all those photos in the cloud, in your will so they can be shared or deleted.
