| Jan 3, 2013 at 18:48 | comment | added | Kristina Lopez | While the sentiment (Rest in Peace) may be appropriate, I am bothered to see it abbreviated to "RIP" in places, like FaceBook that don't limit the number of characters one can use. Personally, (and because this is really subjective, I've voted to close), I would think if a person is moved enough to mention a death, they could use something more heartfelt - or at least, spell out "Rest in Peace" - but that's me. :-) | |
