Creeping out Classmates.com

One high school alumni class received an email from a fellow alum via Classmates.com... except that the student had been dead for some time.

[Mary Cronin] disappeared April 12, 1992. Her skull and part of her remains found a year later in a field in Cass County.   A cold case with no closure.

Uncanny social networking, plus a horrific flavor for a widely-suffered popup ad.

Then there's the creepiness of one theory:

Debbie [McGrew, President of Westside's Alumni Association] wonders who sent it and with Mary's killer still out there, could they have signed up under her name?  She says, "That is what I thought as well what if it was the killer? It is close to anniversary time."
