The memoriam I want to look at is set to private, what can I do?
When a memoriam is set to private the owner has stated they do not wish for it to appear to everyone. You can still look at the memoriam as long as the owner has set a password, you can contact the memoriam owner by clicking "Who manages this profile?" - when contacting the memoriam owner, you should say who you are and why you want access. With a bit of luck, the owner will reply and send you the password.
