I have seen them in various sizes in stores like target and Walmart when I get up and get the computer turned on I’ll see if I can find some for her for you and send you the links.

You may even consider a small TV! Most come now with a usb port, and can be used as a 'Digital Picture Frame', they give the option of rotating photos... I use a 32" for that purpose.

,,, be sure to also check the width of the field of view. I have a couple on a wall and one of them I can see from the couch...the other one is un-recognizable unless I get up and move more to a square-on view. Also keep in mind that the vertical/horizontal display works great if all your shots are vertical or horizontal (portrait/landscape).

The most important thing, I think, would be pre-selected photos that would be very special.

Due to Covid, my dauther's memorial service was nine months after her passing. With my other daughter's help, my son-in-law put together a wonderful grouping of photos of my daughter, many of which included my other children, which ran on two screens before the service began. It brought back such wonderful memories. It was the best use of a camera I ever made. So, it's not the frame, it's what it will hold.

I am always sad to hear of someone losing a child. I'm sorry for your loss and I truly understand because I lost my youngest son to cancer in 2015. Pictures and memories become great treasures left by those we miss.
People told me it would get better over time. It hasn't. I don't think it ever gets better, I think we just finally learn to accept it because we know there is nothing we can do to change it.
