I just, that would be so low on my priority list, and if it ever even came up I think it would be wrong to initiate the deceased into an org for that reason.
The ONLY time I think I'd see it would be if they were in the process of transitioning and she was an active member in the absorbed sorority, and then it's more of an "in memorium" sort of thing.

I just don't like the idea.

Well it was more like somebody died and some time afterward her local get absorbed. Though honestly not sure how I feel about it myself.

Yeah, that situation would be a flat out no for me. I can only see it working as something similar to graduating a student who dies, or is expected to die, before school is out.
