What Happens to the Contact?

Filtering

Contacts that have been deceased live behind a filter on the Contacts and Activities page. To find Contacts who are marked as Deceased, you can filter "Is Deceased: Yes". From the Contacts page, this will return a list of all contacts that have been marked as such. From the Activities page, this will return a list of Activities associated with those Deceased Records.

Mailings

Contacts that are deceased will automatically be removed from all Mailing communications, and their letters will not be generated.

Status

These records will remain a part of your Active database, unless you choose to Archive these records.
