Rebecca Coriam Website

[STLDisney_Freak]

I don't know if I should post this or not, but I know that some people have been following and have the candles in their profiles for her so I thought I would.

Mods, if this shouldn't be posted then please close the thread.

I was on twitter last night searching "Disney Cruise" and came across the memorial website from Rebecca's family.

So sad. My heart goes out to her family and friends. I think not knowing what actually happened makes it so much harder since there is a mixture of anguish and hope.

"Memorial" would be an appropriate label for a website where there has been closure and grief has turned to celebrating the memory of a loved one.

But that is not what the link in the original post takes you to. The key phrase greeting visitiors is a plea - "Help Us Find Rebecca." And site requests donations for a search foundation, not a monument or memorial initiative.

That poor family is not ready to grieve. What they want is their daughter back.

I remember when this first happened, and had forgotten about it. I thought some information would have come up by now.

I hope the family gets some resolution soon. How sad.

Would it be inappropriate to make a magnet for my door with the Rebecca Corium candle graphic? Opinions?

I think that would be a lovely gesture.

This is a great website. So sad for the family.

Are you going on the Wonder?

People grieve in different ways. If it was someone I knew and was close to, I would be bothered by that. I wouldn't want someone making a public spectacle of my friend. (And something like this sorta happened with an uncle of mine who passed prematurely.)

If you're going on one of the other ships, I wouldn't worry about it as much though.

I was thinking that, but.....

Yeah, the Wonder. I will probably err on the side of not offending anyone, but when I have lost people in the past, I always felt anger at people around me just going about their lives. How dare they (go shopping, wait in line at Starbucks, deliver the mail) when my world was just shattered by so and so dying. I guess that is part of the grieving process.

Maybe I was thinking just a small graphic near the bottom of my door, but maybe not....

I understand what you mean. I'm different though. I don't want to be reminded about the hurt. After a certain point, I don't want people coming up to me telling me how sorry they are and how it was such a loss - especially when they didn't even know the person I lost.

That might not make a whole lot of sense. Maybe I'm weird. I just don't want people (strangers especially) reminding me of my loss. Once I have grieved, I want to move on. If I want to be reminded or reminisce, I want to do it on my own, not by someone else's prodding.

That would be the only thing I could see happening, is that the sign reminds one of the CM's of her and then they get upset or something. If I were you I would not do anything with her face or that says RIP. Maybe just a candle and her name. If it were something that made me see that someone cares about my friend who has gone missing, I would be somewhat happy. If it made me feel as though my missing friend was dead, i would be very upset. So it is truly up to you, but thats just my opinion.

I appreciate your opinion. It would probably just the candle and her name, no RIP or anything like that. I want the crew to know that whilte we are there having a great time, I am aware of their hurt and they have lost a friend. This is on the small chance the crew has time to look at my door magnets and they even know who she is.

Maybe it would be a downer.....so hard to tell.

I was on the Wonder when Rebecca disappeared. I think a candle with her name would be appropriate. It was very distressing onboard to know this had happened. Now, the room stewards are not likely to have known her personally since she hadn't been onboard that long and was in Youth Services. So I don't think you will offend anyone.

I don't see anything wrong with her family wanting to continue to search. Hey, look at Jaycee Dugard. Missing 18 years and found alive.

I briefly scanned that website you linked, so forgive me if I missed it, but I see no mention under 'news' of this....

Anyone know if they have a follow-up since then? Would be interesting to find out who went into her bank account...

Praying the family gets answers...I can't imagine their worry.

I think it would be inappropriate. The ship is home to the thousands of cast members that work and live onboard. Would you want a constant reminder of a mysterious disappearance / possible death of a co-worker and possible friend as you are going about your daily work? I would not.

While I understand that it is meant as a sign of caring, I view it as intruding into the personal lives of cast members and bringing up something that must be extremely difficult for so many onboard. What IF your room steward was friends with her? They do not have the option to NOT see it every day as they do their job. It is there. Everyday. I just think it's inappropriate.

Since you asked....

Nothing has been publicly stated about Rebecca since the news about her bank about being accessed.

Hi all,
I am a member of the Rebecca Coriam FaceBook page and would like to let all of you know that there is still a very very active group there of her family and friends who believe that she is still alive. Rebecca was a very strong swimmer and athlete.
Please feel free to support the family on FB. And in person if you happen to live in England!!

 

[lbgraves]

While I understand your wanting to show your support and concern, if it doesn't directly affect the CMs who knew her, it might cause other guests who do not know what happened to ask questions...never knowing who they might ask...and that could put a CM in a position where they are caught off guard.
