When I was first diagnosed with cancer I quickly learned not to do any cancer searches on the web because every time I did I found doom and gloom. I later became more brave and started looking things up and that is when I found this board. I was looking for hope. A memorial page would not upset me now - but when I was new it probably would have.
I think we have to also remember that this is Joe and Christine's site, they have done a great job on it and we should trust them to know what is best for the site. If a memorial page was created - Joe would be the person stuck doing it and since he is against the project, we would be asking to much of him.
A possible alternative would be for a member here to create a memorial website. Perhaps Joe would be willing to add a link to it or have the link in a sticky post.
