St Valentine's Day and Widows

Hi All,
A discussion that may not have been discussed previously with your fundraising team but I think a relevant one.
Recently I became a widow, suddenly. A few weeks ago we started talking about sending Valentine's related comms and I thought, I really REALLY don't want to be getting any of those from any organisation.
Have you considered this in your fundraising comms? That there are those out there in our communities who's grief might be exacerbated by receiving these sorts of communications?
Something to think about ?
