How to announce a passing discreetly with a digital memorial notice

A calm and selective way to inform only the people you choose, including relatives and friends who live far away.

Informing everyone can be difficult

After a loved one’s passing, families may need to contact relatives abroad, friends in other towns, colleagues and acquaintances. Calling everyone individually takes time during an already difficult period.

Traditional funeral notices still matter

Printed funeral notices remain meaningful in many communities. A digital memorial notice does not have to replace them; it adds a private way to reach people who are far away.

A selective and unobtrusive announcement

The family chooses who receives the notice, when it is sent and how it is shared. This avoids unwanted public exposure and keeps the announcement within the chosen circle.

When a digital memorial notice is especially useful

It is useful for relatives living abroad, friends outside the area, private ceremonies, family messaging groups and any situation requiring a restrained announcement.

A complete personalised notice

The notice can include a photograph, name, dates, ceremony location and time, and either a prepared memorial phrase or a personal message.

How the UltimoSaluto® assisted service works

The family uploads a photograph, chooses a notice design, selects a prepared phrase or supplies their own wording, chooses typography and visual details, and submits the request. UltimoSaluto® completes the design.

Digital memorial image

The image version is usually completed within 24 hours and is ready to share through WhatsApp, email, smartphones, tablets or private channels.

Digital memorial video

The still photograph can also be replaced by a short memorial video. Before payment, UltimoSaluto® provides a free feasibility assessment to determine whether the photograph can be animated naturally and respectfully.

Video production time

After feasibility and the order are confirmed, the memorial video is usually completed within 24 hours.

Why families choose this option

It reaches distant relatives, reduces repeated calls, protects privacy, provides consistent information and leaves a keepsake of the ceremony.
