You could also attach a public message to a flower tribute, which will be seen by anyone visiting that memorial. By the way, "calculated links" are just the reverse direction of a explicitly entered link. (I.e. when I link YYY as XXX's husband, it is a calculated link that XXX is YYY's wife).bgwiehlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00904956507742860598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-6334892243347026432014-05-04T14:06:45.265-07:002014-05-04T14:06:45.265-07:00There is a way that you can contact obsessive jour...There is a way that you can contact obsessive journey, it's just not very intuitive. On Johanna's page (or any other you're interested in), click on the edit link at the top right, then click "Suggest any other correction or addition." You can then fill in any message you want to send.
