Suggestion for removing paywall for authors who have passed on.

Recently I was made aware of an author who had put together information from blog postings that are regularly deleted.  This author has since passed on and one of the other readers suggested I post feedback to you all to remove the paywall restriction to authors articles who have since passed on.  I said I would post my vote to you for this as well.  Please consider this post as my vote to remove or not enforce paywall access to authors who have passed on.  Thank you.
