There have been several threads about the deaths of FT members - one very recently. But we do have to consider whether the member (or their families) would be happy to have threads about their deaths on FT as well - death can be a very private affair and some people will just not want a large fuss made - and others might!
After a discussion around this subject, I've now created a FT will - I've told some close friends (who are also on FT) what I want to be done on FT in the event that I die untimely. Now, it's up to them to decide if they want to follow my wishes, but I've also told them what I said to say about anyone who choses to ignore my wishes
But I think it will always remain a difficult topic for us, and I'm sure there are many members out there who have died and we are simply not aware of their deaths.
