I was reading these post and just checking things out when I came across your post. There are many funeral homes in Second Life but they are not advertised per say since they mainly exsist in RP sims.
I am a current owner of Mikael & Macon Funeral home in a RP sim called Avon.
We handle services which surpisingly keep us on our toes.
Some folks have RL friendships, sadly either they hear of a loss or they no longer sign on anymore and friends ususally come to us for closure. Recently, I had an man who claimed his friend has been offline for 2 full years and was not sure if the person made an alt or not. Reguardless , I feel he was looking for closure.
Our services offer many options. He offer Memorial Urns , Prayer Cards with the picture of the person RL or SL .The services we offer are the services that are offered in RL. We have casket lowering devices , funeral processions , coffins , urns ect.
We post obituarys to the loved ones groups and coordinate service hours around their schedule.
We feel confident in a RP sim since many like to have a Funeral for pets , made up people ect. We keep the RP and RL option always open and our staff goes through RL training on how to deal with greivence .
What ever situation , I think anyone who socialzes had feelings. Some cannot rest without a closure process.
Our Funeral Home is very professional . Its not Dark, it actually feels like a RL funeral home.
So far we booked over 73 funerals since 2013 and it just keeps growing.
Some people see death as a new chapter in the virtual world. For some its justice and for others is just a curiosity. We are open for business to offer those services to anyone who needs them.
