After a death, do you delete the contact? Or let it sit in address book? - eviltoast

Wondering what your take on this is.

    My Xbox friend list has a slowly growing number of gamer tags that will never be online again

    Climate change will be reversed and billionaires will be abolished before I delete my grandparents contacts from my phone. Every time I pass my grandpa’s, I hear Hello young man, it’s your grandfather. like he said every time we talked on the phone regardless of who called who.

    I can understand those who don’t feel the same way.

    Keep it if you want, don’t keep it if you don’t.

    But never forget the people.

      Ahhh I’m one of the dead xBox and PSN friends for many lovely people.

      I have everything from the Atari 2699 to the PS3/Wii/360… the ps4 and xBone had terrible performance and loading times so I never got them. Now I just have a bunch of high end computers and no desire to get consoles again. But I did have some sweet friends who might still see my name as “last logged in 12 years ago” or something like that.
