Memorialise a Facebook account

Can anyone help me because I’m getting so fed up of this now. I know it’s trivial but it’s my late aunts Facebook account I’m trying to memorialise and the forms and pages to fill in for it are just sending me round in circles !

before she died we thought we made me her legacy contact on her account but I can’t see to make it all work. I’ve tried the forms as if I’m not a legacy contact and
just a relative and it’s just says error and keeps making me type in that I’m not a robot over and over.

l am her executor and have all the info. It keeps saying the link to her Facebook account isn’t right but I’m copying it direct from Facebook!

has anyone managed it ? It’s making me sad it looking like she’s still with us and I miss her so much. x

I’m sorry about your aunt, please also watch out for the ‘you have memories today’, they really hurt too, when you least expect a reminder.

I couldn’t make the memorial function work either, so I logged in to my husband’s account (I had all his passwords) and just closed the account. It doesn’t stop the memories popping up though, so now I mute them around sensitive times of the year.
