Preserving Memories of a Loved One?

An anonymous reader writes "My wife is dying of metastatic (stage 4) cancer. Statistically she has between one and two years left. I have pre-teen daughters. I'm looking for innovative ideas on how to preserve memories of their mother and my wife so that years down the road we don't forget the things we all tend to forget about a person as time passes. I have copious photos and am taking as much HD video as I can without being a jerk, so images and sounds are taken care of (and backed up securely). I'm keeping a private blog of simple daily events that help me remember the things in between the hospitalizations and treatments. In this digital age what other avenues are there for preserving memories? Non-digital suggestions would be welcome, too."

Regrettably I must agree with my anonymous colleague. Looking for compassionate, helpful posts for a topic like this on ./ is like seeking legal advice on the WoW boards.

I recommend dipping them in bullet-proof lucite!

With all due respect, the correct answer is carbonite. Please surrender your troll and geek cards on the way out.
