15 Ways to Continue Your Loved One's Legacy Even After They're Gone
Posted by: Erin Ward in Grief and Guidance, Memorialization | July 29, 2021
A loved one’s legacy is about more than just the objects they leave behind for others. But rather, it’s about the positive impact they made in the world and how they will be remembered by their family, friends, and even strangers who learn about their life story.
Just because a loved one passed doesn’t mean their legacy needs to end. Below are 15 ways to continue your loved one’s legacy even after they’re gone.
15 Ways to Continue Your Loved One’s Legacy Even After They’re Gone
- Share their story with others. Then, they can share it with their own loved ones and so on.
- Create a scrapbook or photo album. As you share their life story, you can show photos of their life, too.
- Post on their online memorial page. You can share photos, videos, memories, and more.
- Dedicate a bench to them. This makes the perfect spot for telling your loved one’s story.
- Establish a scholarship in their memory. Helping others achieve their goals is a beautiful way to continue your loved one’s legacy.
- Name a loved one after them. Whether it’s your child or pet, you can share the story of how they got their name and why it’s special.
- Do a new tradition. This can be something you do with family and friends to honor your loved one every month, year, or however often you wish.
- Make a memento to pass down. This way, the younger generations of your family can learn about your loved one’s legacy.
- Continue to do something on their behalf. It can be running a community event they managed or something as simple as helping their neighbor that they did yard work for.
- Start something in their honor. For example, it can be a club or volunteer group that aligns with one of their passions.
- Collect donations. They can be for a local food pantry, animal shelter, or another organization that was important to your loved one.
- Volunteer your time. You can choose an organization that your loved one was passionate about, such as the ones mentioned above.
- Participate in a race to honor their life. You can create a group to run or walk in your loved one’s memory.
- Finish items on their bucket list. Was there somewhere they always wanted to travel or an activity they wanted to experience? You can do it in their honor.
- Reevaluate your own legacy. You also can talk with your family and friends about how they want to be remembered.
What other ways can you continue your loved one’s legacy even after they’re gone? Share them in the comments.

Yep, you read that right — equifax says i am deceased. Apparently, I’ve been dead for a while now… according to them. Found out when I was denied for a credit card and the bank rep told me my credit report flagged me as deceased. At first, I laughed — then I realized how serious it was. I couldn’t apply for anything. My credit froze, insurance got weird, and one lender literally told me, “We don’t give loans to the dead.”

I have been suffering from Herpes for the past 1 years and 8 months, and ever since then I have been taking series of treatment but there was no improvement until I came across testimonies of Dr. Silver on how he has been curing different people from different diseases all over the world, then I contacted him as well. After our conversation he sent me the medicine which I took according to his instructions. When I was done taking the herbal medicine I went for a medical checkup and to my greatest surprise I was cured from Herpes. My heart is so filled with joy. If you are suffering from Herpes or any other disease you can contact Dr. Silver today on this Email address: drsilverhealingtemple@gmail.com

Quando ho deciso di trovare un casinò online veramente affidabile con la possibilità di giocare con denaro reale, ho dovuto affrontare un problema: troppe informazioni sono sparse sul web. O dati obsoleti o solo pubblicità senza fatti. Per puro caso mi sono imbattuto in una piattaforma che si è subito distinta dalle altre. Fin dai primi minuti ho notato che l'interfaccia del sito è ben studiata: facile da navigare, tutte le informazioni necessarie a portata di mano, nessun dettaglio superfluo qui https://verdecazino.it/ . Mi fa molto piacere che qui siano raccolte recensioni su casinò davvero di alta qualità, dove è possibile vedere immediatamente le condizioni di gioco, i bonus per i depositi e le condizioni di pagamento reali. Il livello di dettaglio delle descrizioni merita un'attenzione particolare: non ci sono solo promesse, ma una vera e propria analisi dei vantaggi e delle caratteristiche di ogni casinò. Inoltre, ogni offerta è accompagnata da raccomandazioni sui depositi minimi, sui metodi di deposito e persino da consigli per i principianti.

My name is Amelia Jonathan from the United States, Using this opportunity to thank Dr. Ughulu is a grateful thing to me, for over years I have been sick with Hepatitis B disease, I have done a lot of things to get cured of my diseases and nothing has worked out. I have taken different types of medication for it , but it still doesn’t work for me. I still keep going for a check up so that the doctor will tell me my disease has gone, because i’m taking my medicine with no result nothing has been cured, I have spent a lot of money just to get cure of Hepatitis B. until my old time friend came to my place and saw what am going through, and then direct me to contact Dr. Ughulu who is a very powerful man, which I did explain my problem to Dr. Ughulu and send me a herbal remedy bottle and explain to me how I should drink it. So I started to drink the herbal tea in one week that I drink the herbal tea. I went for a check up to check if I’m cured from Hepatitis B disease, then the nurse told me nothing is wrong with me anymore and said I’m fine. I am the happiest person right now. I promise Dr Ughulu I will testify about his good work on the internet.

I thought the physicians says there is no cure for HSV 2!!! I am telling you today that DR.UMA cure HSV 2 with his herbal medicine and once you get cured you are cured forever it is never reversible, I have been suffering for this deadly disease called h HSV 2 for more than a 2years and lost all hope because my doctor says there is no cure for HSV 2. Brethren I saw a testimony on the internet on how DR.UMA cure HSV, Hapatitis etc with his herbal medication and an email and watsapp to contact him was also displayed, I thought this was joke but I decided to contact him and he replied telling me not to worry that my problem is over . DR.UMA sent me a herbal medication to drink for one month but only 2weeks I feel strange and I went to my doctor and he confirmed me negative. He can help you too. Contact him via email...dr.umaherbalcenter@gmail.com WhatsApp +2347035619585. He is capable of curing AUTISM, HERPES, HPV, HSV1&2, HEPATITIS A B C, and DIABETES.

I have been playing a lottery jackpot for over 2 years all I have won is 5000 thousand dollars ever since I still keep playing it and I haven't win again I was wondering what was happening, until the day I was looking for how to win online I saw a comment how someone testifies Dr. Ughulu it was very interesting and I also sent him message to help me, and I explained everything to him, so he did everything for me and gave me six Powerball winning numbers. I played it and I won, when the winning numbers came out I was among the people and my winning price was $196 Million Dollars,what else can I say? Thank you so much Dr. Ughulu.
