next of kin in a facebook age

I won't go into details here; check the other place if you're part of that club.

Just a weird thing that's probably only come up in the last couple of years that happened yesterday. I ended up having to inform a number of people of a death in the family, and had to warn them "don't put anything on facebook" to avoid someone finding out about it that way before we'd had a chance to contact them.

Unfortunately, my son wasn't up yet when I left the house and my daughter didn't pass the message along to him... Luckily by the time he did post something we'd gotten to most of the ones who I was worried about.
