KEEP THE DECEASED ALIVE!

Often, I hear (well meaning) people who are fearful of bringing up the name of the deceased, for fear that that will make the survivors sad. Want to know what REALLY makes the survivors sad?  It's when people DON'T mention their loved one's name!  No one wants to be forgotten!  "People aren't dead until you stop saying their name and stop telling stories about them."  Harold Ivan Smith.
