Yes, but onoy as long as you don't post their name. Posting a persons name without express written consent is a violation of US Federal law.

The right to post someone's name passes to the heirs like any other intellectual property.

So if you post a message of condolence to an online obituary, you aren't allowed to mention the deceased's name unless you're a member of their immediate family? I seriously doubt that.

When a major politician dies, literally hundreds of speakers appear on TV eulogizing them. Newspapers and online media sources report on subject, using both names and images.

BTW:

> 39, almost 40

This is a joke, right?

So, has anybody here actually looked up "Title 18 USC §46730" to see what it actually says?
