A window on Main Street would be very appropriate.

Lol i don't think Meg Crofton would approve. She got her window last year and a cup dinner I think at the Contemporary or ohana.

Not sure about main street but I wouldn't be opposed to it. A plaque in a cast area, anything permenant really to acknowledge these employees would be appreciated.

Those are great that they do that for imagineers and such. But the topic of discussion was about the employee's who worked at Disney who died during the pulse shooting and I am not even saying a window. I am saying a plaque somewhere backstage if they wanted to keep it in a cast area, something to show that these kids are going to be remembered by their associates and company and hopefully serve as a reminder so that we can never see a tragedy like this again.
Is this OK?
Edit: I didn't see corey p's comment and thought your photo was in response to my comment lol CARRYON

like the LAL tombstones at Epcot
How is it hurting you or taking away from your entertainment? It's just a window.
I guess they should remove the countless other tributes to real people strewn throughout the parks.

I think it is beautiful. It's unassuming. It's perfect. Had it been someone I loved, I would be forever grateful.

Wow, I find this to be very respectful and classy. Very impressed with Universal for honoring its family this way.

As a theme park fan, member of the Orlando LGBT community, and UOR passholder, the gesture made me smile.
I was not in Pulse that night. I'm a news photographer who had to work 3:30a that Sunday morning. Guess where I was at 3:45am?
It was a really long day, and the first time is 10 years of news that I cried at work. I covered Columbine, and VA Tech, the Batman Shooting happened at the theater in Aurora that we saw all the LotR and the first 4 Potter movies. I don't give a poop about anyone's 2nd amendment rights. We aren't mature enough for them. Jefferson never contemplated a populus this ignorant.

I think it would be awesome if Disney found a window in Liberty Square to honor the WDW CMs that were killed.
Or The American Pavilion in Epcot.

How does the manner in which Universal did this tribute in a window interfere with the entertainment aspect of the park?

Couldn''t agree more. I woke up that day and being a member of the same community I woke up and saw my phone lit up with messages asking me where I was, if I was alright, and then I even got a call from a co worker sobbing checking to see if I was okay as she was calling all her friends who she knew visited pulse from time to time. It was a horrible experience and one that I wish we never see again. I couldn't agree with you more on the second amendment, the founding fathers never had weapons that could take down a classroom of people in seconds.

The only one I know of is Jerry Wright. He was my best friend's roommate. He also used to work for Universal.
