I hope this doesn't seem morbid, but I saw this on the Delt Webpage and it seemed to me that there should be a place to honor brothers and sisters who have passed on -- especially those who were notable in their service to their organization or society as a whole.
I thought that the alumni category might make the most sense since some of us may know, or at least have met, some of these people.
