While I agree that having an "in memorandum" section could be scary for newbies, the reality is that by the time they find this site they have already realized they're in for a long journey. I would assume most here are adults, my son is 17 and he doesn't look at this site at all. Neil, do you know if there are many youths who use this site? If so, my vote would be nay. If you think most are adults, then I would like to see such a section.

I peruse this forum in spurts, so for me, having a specific section dedicated to those who have lost the fight would be a way to catch up with people who have lost the fight. I don't find it too different that the obit section in the paper, only that here I will probably know each of the deceased.

Just my two cents.
