What are the benefits of live streaming a funeral?

Live streaming a funeral allows family and friends to pay respects to their loved one regardless of where they are located. If someone is unable to travel because of financial, temporal or health-related reasons, a live-streamed funeral gives him access to participate and say a final goodbye.

Live streaming a funeral also provides the flexibility of recording and re-watching the funeral at a later date so loved ones can pay their respects privately and in their own way and time. Live streaming funerals is often free or under $100, as of 2015, so it is an economical option for people who want to mourn but are unable to physically be at the location.
