Answers.Body: <p>Here is the solution that I've come up with: first, we created a custom field set for "Honoree Section".

Answers.Text: Thanks! Yes, I knew that soft credits can be given. But, unfortunately, we'd like to be able to search by soft credit type, i.e. by whether the soft credit is a PCP, an "In Memory Of" or "In Honor Of". We are a residential substance abuse recovery program that helps people in addiction, so (sadly) we have residents that become deceased and people often want to give in memory of a deceased person. We then want to send a letter to the loved ones, caregivers, parents, etc. of the deceased acknowledging all the gifts that were given. See below. I have a solution.
