IndieWeb Examples
"When my mom died, I wrote her obituary and placed it in the local newspaper. Legacy.com reposted it and gave visitors a commenting function - but only for a year. When I discovered over four pages of comments from friends and family on my mom’s Legacy.com obituary page were about to be lost, I created a site for her with WordPress and the Hemingway Reloaded theme. I posted updates, including an MP3 of her voicemail greeting, and people whose lives she touched still post comments to this day."
 * Brianna Privett built a remembrance site for her mother. She discussed it at WordCampUS in December 2017.(slide 24)

Silo Examples

 * Legacy.com is a silo service that takes obituaries from local newspapers and allows mourners to post memories of their loved ones. As a paid service they maintain memorial websites on an ongoing basis. They allow people to post notes, photos, and videos as well as creating some brief identity information for deceased loved ones. They also have a custom post type allowing visitors to light a candle, which is essentially a note with an attached photo of a candle.
