Happy Heavenly Birthday, Steven! I am thinking of you today, Ann.

It will take some getting used to all the features that are on the board.  If you need any help, let me or Tom know and we will be more than happy to help!

Love,
Dena, Josh's Mom

I think this may be a problem.  Unless we look at the calendar, it posts as if everyones's BD and
Angel dates are today.  I had to edit the post and put the date into the post, even though it shows on the calendar.

Maybe a way around this is to put the date in the subject heading to let people know when the actual death occurred.  For example if I was posting an anniversary to the calendar of a death that happened last year on July 13 I would post the event to the calendar for July 13, 2007 and in the subject heading of the message I would say "Tom's loved ones anniversary July 13, 2005."  This would clarify the actual date of the death for others who were reading the board and would make it easy for all to see that the date mentioned  would be the two year anniversary.  Does that make sense?

I think the "post event" posts are also an opportunity to tell a bit of your story.  Maybe use the post to tell a bit about that day and what happened or maybe talk about the things you dread the most about that day, the things that hurt the most or what sorts of support you would find helpful.
