Can I memorialize my own account?

Can you have more than one legacy contact on Facebook?

Users can only select one legacy contact, meaning that if a user selects their partner and they both die in a car crash or similar, the legacy contact system falls down. If users do not name a legacy contact, but do name a “digital heir” within their will, Facebook will designate that person as a legacy contact.
