Krista, the issue was that Joe, and especially Christine, did not wish to have that be part of this site - and that she personally would not want to be remembered that way. I'm not trying to put words in anyone's mouth, that's just what I remember about the discussion.

In the end, we have to remember that we are guests here in Joe and Christine's home - and respect their feelings about what kind of place it is. I notice Joe has not chimed in on this thread, so I don't know what their feelings are now - as I said, I don't want to put words in anyones mouth.

Speaking for myself, I believe it is important to come together, cry, say goodbye, share our favorite memories of our beloved friends who have left us. In real life, we do that at a memorial service. This is why I suggested an online chat might be a good alternative. As for remembering, I will always have my memories of the friends I've lost from this forum...I don't need or desire a memorial page to do that.

Much love,
Chris
