My buddy’s wife killed herself a few years ago, but her LinkedIn saying her “open for work” anniversary comes up every year…..and people actually congratulate it. Brutal.

There's an option where you can report an account for "Something else" and click "Memorialize account" and provide Facebook with some evidence of passing -- an online obituary, for example -- and they'll put it into a memorialized status where it is basically left as a tombstone of sorts. People can leave messages and view whatever pictures and things they had posted if they fit that audience, but it limits what the account can do.
It's intended for the person's family to use, but anyone technically can do it.

Please bear in mind that memorialisation is a big decision. If you're not a family member or close friend of the person who has passed away, we recommend contacting the person's family before requesting memorialisation.
