Overflow to the max. What I found most interesting about the thing, was that in fact, myspace.com was mentioned in the program, along with the obit, letters from mom and dad, hymns. That's a first for me for sure. Not that I have been to that many young people's funeral's in the last few years since myspace hit the scene, but still... What an amazing funeral.

About the online grieving and this...its hard to know. I have to say that it has been really helpful for me when Marla passed, but it came dangerously close to going overboard. But at the same time, what is not overboard when it comes to grief, and knowing you are not alone is a good feeling, because no matter what, you tend to feel utterly alone when grieving for someone.
