I love how being terminally ill and being "over 50 years of age" are equated here. Six of one and all that.
It looks like this is a fee service, though, so "over 80 years of age" probably wouldn't have looked quite as appealing to Marketing.

My father is ill and probably won't live more than a few more months. The family and I have started planning for his death. He's a devote Christian and ready to die. He's also very evangelical. I found the Heaven's Mail site via a google search and was touched by the thought and the faith that went into the site's development. The site is all about Christian hope. The functionality is truly incredible. There are free services too. Definitely worth giving a try!

Actually an interesting idea...worth consideration for some.
