Resources: Finding Names

We of course invite you to name and honor someone you know who has died. If you do not have a personal connection, this list of public sources may be used with discretion. 

These are just a few examples of online memorial projects. You may know others.

Please take some time to read through and acquaint yourself with essential people who have died in the pandemic. Choose one or more people to name as the focus of your memorial.
