The Daily wants to honor Americans who have died from the coronavirus.
The Daily is working on a special episode memorializing the people we have lost to Covid-19 in the United States. If you have lost someone close to you during the pandemic and would like to share their name with us, please follow the instructions below.
How to Submit
Please RECORD A VOICE MEMO and email it to The Daily inbox at thedaily@nytimes.com with the information in this example:
-
Name of Your Loved One: Jane Doe
-
Relationship to You: My English teacher
-
Age at Time of Passing: 61 years old
-
Date of Death: April 2020
If you want to say anything else about them — something specific that you miss, something unique or something that defined them as a person — please let us know in your voice note.
Finally, if you’re so moved, tell us the story of your journey with grief during the pandemic — be as specific as possible. What was surprising? Where did you find joy? Was there a moment that your grief shifted? How has this journey changed you? What have you learned about loss?
Feel free to send any questions you have about the process to The Daily inbox (thedaily@nytimes.com).
