I read in chat that another player passed away, recently.
It lowers my spirits to know other folderers are gone and won't be back⦠at least not in this plane of existence.
Would it be possible to add an icon to their profiles, honoring their memory? A set of angel wings was suggested. You could start looking here with some free clip art:

My team has lost two players in the short time we've been around. One to a rejected transplant and the most recent to a heart attack on the 4th. I'd love to see a set of angel wings on their profiles so people know they didn't leave due to disinterest.
It's a great idea. We've lost members in years past and it would be nice to be able to let others know that they're gone and will be missed.
I rarely give a +1 to any feedback, but this one deserves it!
I completely agree with this suggestion and sincerely hope it will be implemented.
Thank you very much for this suggestion.
We are very sad to hear about the recent Foldit players that we have lost and we are already discussing how best to honor their memories.
This is a great idea. Extremely glad the team is looking into doing something.
What about a candle burning?
You could let players pick among several icons on their profile settings.
Arlington National Cemetery has different tombstones for different faiths.
Symbols like on the Coexist bumper stickers might be good to pick from:

I like the burning candle idea too.
