I get respecting the family while grieving but let’s be real here, is anyone from the family realistically going to even find let alone care about random strangers speculating on a random internet platform that isn’t even related to chess?

The chance of this even reaching them is infinitesimally small. We’re not standing around talking about it with them in the room, we shouldn’t be pretending like we are.

Its definitely normal to wonder "what happened?"

Even if not, we're all better off if we behave with respect and humanity.

This just feels like gatekeeping discussion at this point.

I have seen people that I would have never expected to have heard about HN, show up here. The odds that someone tells the family to come look may not be that high. But they are very far from zero.

Most other internet forums that I've been on I would not say this about.
