If you're a young developer at Apple you have no idea how hard this feedback hits.

So many of your points-of-view change after the first death in the immediate family. That's not likely to happen until your fifties or sixties.

The memorials on our devices are important: I have a weekly reminder to “Check in on mom” that will never be removed because it has a whole new purpose since her death.

@chockenberry @macmanx @agiletortoise if the date deceased would show up in the calendar, that would be even better. I do this for family, and friends’ loved ones. It’s good to remember when your own relatives passed, but also how those passing affect your cousins, aunts, uncles , friends, and that they may be facing difficult anniversaries.
