A woman walked into a Walmart and was shocked to see an inflatable arm-flailing tube man greet her. "This is inhumane", she retorted to the staff, "my late husband used to be a greeter here and he had warmth."
The staff are moved by her story, none more so than the caring manager who digs up a CCTV recording of her late husband and convinces corporate to rig upa digital hologram of the man.
The very next day, as the woman walks into Walmart by invitation, the ghostly hologram of her late husband beams at her warmly with a familiar greeting. She gasps, moved beyond words. "Thank you for this" she sobs, "now I can move on, knowing that his soul works on for eternity at this company".

And it's 2013, not 2019. Great story.
Edit: adding time context.
