I mean, why delete the contact? You could also demolish the headstone.

It costs you nothing to keep it in your phone as a memory.

If the number gets reassigned after the grace period expires, the new owner might add a profile picture that then populates across linked services. I’d rather avoid that.

I personally delete. Someone else will take that number anyways… I feel like there are so many other things to keep that remind us of whom we have lost

I delete it. For those people, I have more profound ways to contact them.
