In memoriam

How about just adding a section for those forum members who have passed on...maybe a "Gone But Not Forgotten" section.

Just a thought...

For that we'll need the "Posting from the Afterlife" plugin.

One simple solution would be for me to change the label under their name from "Senior Member" to "Deceased Member" or something like that. Does anyone have a suggestion for an appropriate label?

How about "Member Emeritus"

Personally, I think this is appropriate .......

Don, is there some way to include at least the year of passing?

Perhaps you can juggle the member since entry?

"Member since: 2008-2015"

I am very sorry to hear that RG. I didn't know them but just liked them by what they wrote. They seemed very nice.

That looks good at first glance but the definition of Emeritus doesn't refer to someone being deceased, it just seems to be used to allow a retired person to retain their title.

"Member since: 2008-2015".

I can't edit the "Member since" field. It's automatically pulled from the database. The title under the member name is the only thing I can edit.

I'm still looking for the right title.

Old Coot passed away in March of 2015. His son who he took care for a long time passed away recently.

"In Memory of"

I am sad to report that Ellen, (Mee) of Mee-n-Mac, passed away about five years ago. Brian, (Mac), has not officially visited the Forum since few months before her passing. They were a very special couple.

When we had the ForumFest at Lake Shore Park, Ellen spent $50 for tickets for a picture I took of the Spindle Point lighthouse, because they had friends who had the picture's viewpoint of the lighthouse at their camp. She didn't win, but all was not lost; I emailed her the picture file so she could have it printed out. They were very giving and very special. I believe that their lake home and the cabins across the street were sold a while back.
