Abstract
The tombstone information system is an electronic reliquary that is adapted for use with a tombstone or other funerary marker. The tombstone information system is a memorial device that delivers an encomium of the life of the decedent. The tombstone information system comprises a marker, one or more encomia and a memorial database. The marker is a placard that conveys the index information required to identify and access the encomium associated with the decedent. The memorial database is a data storage device that stores and retrieves the encomium for delivery and display. The memorial database stores and manages one or more encomia. Each encomium selected from the one or more encomia comprises a eulogy, the vital statistics, and references to other relevant information regarding the decedent.
