One year after her husband died, Janice Gentile received an unusual request from her daughter: make a legacy video about their marriage -- and their lives. Beyond companies that will film your video legacy, others, such as LegalZoom.com's forthcoming Legacy division, are exploring innovative ways to let select loved ones continue to connect with you after you die as they face new milestones. Only 44 percent of Americans leave any kind of will behind, according to a 2016 Gallup poll. Hirsch faces tough competition with at least a dozen other video legacy biographers offering similar services from New York to Arizona to California. Instead of leaving behind a digital legacy, they're giving back the old-fashioned way: cash.
