Could we get an "OBITUARY" section for members who have passed on...

I have noticed my infrequency on the forum has left a void in important information... I'm fairly sure this would be appreciated by others... Dave

Great idea Dave !

 

[smokin bark]

Good idea. I'm part of an automotive forum that changes their status to "Member Emeritus" as a way to preserve and memorialize their contributions.

I agree a "in Memory' thread would be a good thing.

I second the motion.

So should we sign up a "battle buddy" for each other to help keep track of everyone? Im aware a lot of members have made some off the forum friends here that they stay in regular touch with, but still accidents can happen and there isnt a way to find out.
Im guessing for me itll be a massive heart attack or the "ole remington retirement" so who will know then? I mean, if it is a hospital stay, you all will know because Ill be posting pics of hot nurses and crappy hospital food!

I'v been after Brian for a couple 3,4 years for this exact thing... Have their memory page with a link to their profile/cooks... Lock the page from any replys...

I like it Dave.

And regarding the infrequency on the forum of which you speak - You're absences are noticed, and your presence is missed. Hope to see you posting more often!

Ya, what he said!

No idea what it would take to accomplish so bmudd14474 this is your area of expertise.

Great idea Dave , there are a few members missing latly that makes you wonder. I was intouch with one . That really had a hard time and is on the mend . Hopfully he will be back soon. But like you say. Who would know unles some one is in touch with them.

I am thinking the same of a few members that posted regularly and no more, even called them out in other threads and no response. (even googled one to see if something came up....I know stalker)

 

[HalfSmoked]

Awesome idea Dave my support any way it's needed.

[sawhorseray]

Sounds like a fine idea to me Dave, and the bonus would be that a member would never know whether he made the list or not! First name up there should be The Bear. RAY

Agreed!

I too would love to see something like this happen.

I met Huey (Salmon Clubber) on here and shortly after meeting, we began trip swapping. I would go to Washington for salmon fishing, and he would come to Texas for feral hog hunting. We did that for years until he passed unexpectedly in 2022.

It would be great to be able to memorialize some of our brothers/sisters in smoke.

I'm sorry, this made me laugh way harder than it should have.
