However, in Yuza town, praying for the repose of souls is continued after last anniversary memorial service. This does not apply to an established theory that personality of a dead person is lost. Concept of the soul affects many shares in this memory about dead person. In Yuza town, it is particularly afraid of a dead person immediately on death, and a difference of measures to the stable soul that passed posthumously for several years is seen everywhere. There are a soul of a stable dead person and aliving person in close relation, which makes various memories about dead person. ln late years, the spread of a photograph and video technology advances, and there is a trial to print a history and history of each family in making of an area magazine. By this study, memory about a dead person in Yuza town is contemplated along with out look on soul which became the base, and introducing variable memory about dead person.
