Wasn't really sure where to put this request or how to phrase it, but here goes.

The site user TrooperOfSteel (Sean Dudley) passed away back on July 3rd 2019.

I didn't know Sean personally beyond a few interactions (we wrote for the same website), but I do click onto his profile every once in a while and it doesn't feel right to see his age continuing to tick up each year.

The easiest solution might just be removing the DOB from his profile info. Maybe a little note on the profile bio would also be appropriate for someone who contributed a lot of reviews to the site over the years?

Well, I removed the birth date. Not sure about the note, though... I mean, anyone who actually sees it would probably wonder if it's just a joke that the user put in himself.

Maybe a dedicated user rank for those that have passed on?
