I recently read that Facebook now lets you nominate a ‘legacy contact'. someone to whom you bequeath access to your account after you pass away. That person will be able to write one post on your wall (announcing your passing) that will remain as a ‘pinned post‘, respond to friend requests and update your profile info. However, they won't able to read any private messages sent to you or act on your behalf (by liking other people's posts logged in as you, for example).
It's easy to do. so I nominated my brother. First. log into Facebook. click the small triangular dropdown menu at the top right, then click Settings. Now click Security at the top left, then the Edit link beside Legacy Contact. Type the name of the person you want, then click Add (see screenshot below). You’ll see a pre- written message informing them they have been nominated as your legacy contact. Click Send.
Bequeath access to your Facebook account
If you'd prefer to delete your account after you pass away. tick the Account Deletion field at the bottom, then click Delete After Death.
