susie b Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 I guess we are all at that place where our beloved older family members, entertainers and music heroes are passing. Making me pretty sad as you think these folks will be around forever. Our family members will remain in our hearts; the actors will live forever on the screen, and the musicians will continue to be in the soundtrack of our lives through the magic of the recording arts. If this trend continues, Bernie is going to have to create a new category in the forum. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that deaths are reported here, and that we can comment, but they really do need to be isolated to a separate section, imho. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susie b Posted January 21 Author Report Share Posted January 21 One of my dad's friends told me that you know you've reached a certain age when the obituary page is the first section of the newspaper that you read. 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LC Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Good thread, Susie. Of all the offerings, I think I like “Don’t Want to Say Goodbye” the best. Because that’s how we’ll all feel when the clock runs out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 Yes… for sure the board should have an obit page. It does two things: A) Honors those who passed because the alerts will stand out more. As it is, they tend to get buried in Everthing or one of the music categories. (Ugh—unfortunate choice of word there—buried). B) Keeps other relevant topics higher, so they don’t get lost in the increasing number of obit alerts. Bernie, I could help migrate posts into it. I bet Kirk would, too. The suggested section title that made me “lol” was Vinnie’s “My Heart Stops.” But… I suppose the subject calls for reverence, so I’d vote for Susie’s suggestion of “Don’t Wanna Say Goodbye.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lew, You need to pull the grass skirt out of the closet and cry equality. Since Diane D abdicated, there is ZERO female representation in the EC.com hierarchy. Hmm... Maybe I should apply and use my Amazon skills to enforce good behavior. Have sword & horse, Bernie. Will travel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who better to govern the lawless posts of EC.com than Lawless???? Thanks, Lew. I know what you really meant, but really, you DO need to get that grass skirt in circulation again with Tommy. 💋 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
