With so many high-profile celebrity deaths already this year, 2016 has forced the Internet to really perfect the way it mourns fallen icons.
There's the digging up of old archival footage, the run-downs of memorable moments, and the heartfelt tributes from other celebrities and anyone else who might have crossed paths with the star.

Music legend Prince's untimely death on Thursday was no different.
Tasked with keeping brands in the mix of any cultural conversation, marketers of all stripes blasted out (and in some cases, later deleted) their own purple-clad tributes to the beloved musician.
They weren't all greeted with derision of course. Minnesota-based companies, music brands and other businesses with a clear connection to Prince have a legitimate reason to speak on his death. And other brands were able to pull off subtle and thoughtful messages that didn't come off as exploitative.
But some brands seemed to be leeching on to a genuine moment of emotion for advertising purposes. Cheerios and alcoholic drink brand Four Lokos were among those that later thought better of posts and deleted them.
Here are some of the brands who paid tribute to Prince on Thursday:
