my Blogger "followers" list

I deleted my Blogger "followers" list from my blog's sidebar long ago—not that anyone would have noticed since no one bothers with sidebars. But the list still exists "inside" of my blog's editing tools as something that I can re-display if I ever decide to. I was looking over that list a few minutes ago and noticing all of the dead people on it—people who had listed themselves as followers of the blog, but who have since passed on. Out of 33 followers (i.e., not many), three of them—1 out of 11— are dead. And I can't quite bring myself to remove their names from the list. What's funny is that, in every case, these are people I'd never met in person.
