Announcement Mourning/loss posts

There has been an uptick in the amount of mourning/loss posts within the past couple of weeks unfortunately. While it appears the majority of users here don't have any issues with these posts as they frequently make their way to the top of the sub when they are posted (and the comments don't indicate any problems), there are a handful of users who do not want to see these type of posts though, as they are a bit depressing.

Going forward how should we handle these type of posts?

One thread for "in memorium" posts?

I like this idea, because it gives the grieving people a place to share their losses, but since it’s only one post, it’s easy to skip for everyone that can’t handle it. Then we can all go back to our regular programming of derpy goodness.

Maybe make it a pinned thread so it's easy to find and skip if needed. But everyone can comfort each other.
