I’m Bol ivia Williams, a student at Bard College. I was the only person in my family who was Facebook friends with my mum, Rynn, when she died four years ago. At that time, my brother and sister were still young. As soon as we got the news that she died, I posted (发帖) on Facebook, “Rest in peace Mum ...” I thought it would be an easy way to let everyone know what happened. Right after I posted the news, so many people offered their help and shared stories about her.

I like to visit my mum’s page to tell her things that I’m doing and I like to look at her pi ctures there. I sing with the Brooklyn Youth Chorus (合唱团), and we did a concert for the tenth anniversary (周年纪念日) of 9/11, which was also my mum’s birthday. It was an unforgettable (难忘的) day. I posted, “You will be proud of me — I will sing at the site of the World Trade Centre tomorrow. I know you will be looking down, smiling.” When I’m writing to her, it feels like I’m still with her.

At first, I wasn’t sure how t o face my mum’s death. But I’ve grown up now. I haven’t been on my mum’s page for a month, but I would miss it if it were gone. Her page allows me to think that she’s still here.

I used to go to my mum’s page to look at her pictures, which would make me feel really sad. Now, when I visit it, I smile more often than cry.
