My cousin posted it on fb, that is how i found out she was ill , by a fb post. I was sad to see she passed, I didn't see this until a day after.
I know fb is easy for some, but I don't think the best way to inform the family someone passed away.
I thought about her today and the good times we had when she lived here. She will be missed.
Some of you will say at least you found out, but fb is not the way to do it. Some of our family didn't know because they do not use social media.

@CookieMonster46 I still believe common courtesy should be a phone call first, then a Facebook posting.

@CookieMonster46 instant and important messages are conveyed to our closed relatives and friends by phone. FB and other social media are to share the news, information, photos, videos etc amongst others.
