I look at and consider ALL edit suggestions.


Note: I do not subscribe to the idea of "not linking family members" to a "cenotaph" memorial for a number of reasons. But if that is something that bothers you … please just add additional information to the memorial (like a footnote at the bottom of the Bio section) to indicate your belief that someone may be buried elsewhere. Thank you.
