I'm happy to edit the titles appropriately of members who pass away here. I think that's an elegant and respectful way of handling their accounts. Of course, if a legitimate family member asks that their account be removed, I would feel compelled to honor that request too.

Thelma, I think the key here is that this isn't a site devoted to memorials so much as it is one devoted to hope and support. I suspect it can feel very disheartening and depressing for many to visit a site everyday and see a sticky thread that reminds them of death. I know it would feel that way to me.

I think the Internet is a *big* big place and if someone wants to setup a website to record all of the deaths due to any specific disease or condition, I'd definitely encourage them to do so. I'm just not sure this is the ideal place for such...
