Do hidden birth years revert to show after the client dies?

So when a IMDbPro client passes away and they have had their year hidden does it stay hidden? Presumably they or their agent wont need to pay for pro anymore and their profile will essentially become a historical record rather than an active CV/resume.

@ChrissyJJ  An active IMDbPro membership is required in order to maintain page controls, such as birth year display, so most likely after someone’s death, the membership will expire and the controls will lapse.  However, note that some page controls, including birth year display, are now available within the IMDbPro free basic tier so this has nothing to do with whether someone is alive to continue paying for a subscription.  

Hope this helps.
