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 @agiletortoise I added it for my dad.
Add date then customize the name to death. I think it did come up either in the calendar or Siri suggestions. He died in 2023 so I have only seen it once.
@linnefaulk @agiletortoise That's a good idea. Just added a death date for both my parents - and had trouble remembering the exact date for my mom 😢
