UK offers virtual funerals {Gadling}

Apr 5th 2008 9:05PM It is a very good idea. Last year (May 2007) when our sister Chris died, we used the skype program to have a live web cast from her funeral in Wisconsin to our brother in Perth Australia. Joe (our brother) was able to participate in the funeral and we were able to share the time with him. The skype program is free and we used the internet connection at our church and equipment from a family member so it didn't cost any additional fee.
