https://inlovingmem.com/ - is a tribute to my recently deceased mom that I vibe coded over the last week. I felt her life deserved to be celebrated widely but wanted to be sensitive to her privacy. I've also built in a number of interactive features for participation in funeral services etc, before, during, and after.

Folks have reached out about having an 'In Loving Memory Of' site for their loved ones, so I'm turning this into a side business to help out more with my (now widowed) father's retirement and care.

Thank you. I for one appreciate the curtsey of expressing sympathies. I don't question the motivation or whatever. It's just a kind gesture.

I will note that I'm trying not to think of her death as a loss. It certainly is in many ways for grandkids and others who were just starting to get to know her. But for the rest of us, I like to think we have a part of our deceased loved ones with us that we now have the responsibility to cary forward.
