mrmoose has reappeared at the top of my page

When viewing his profile his last post was 3 years ago but his profile says he was online weeks ago?
I was led to believe he passed away and not having posted for 3 years I am inclined to agree with this. So why has he reappeared at the top of my page?

Did you look at the profile, or posts. I have noticed when you do this the user then appears in the line up.

@Morrigan I never looked at his profile.
He appeared at the top of my page unprompted.
Does this mean when members die their profile remain here forever? Wondering wondering.

@Gusman well unless they give their log in details to someone, I guess they will
