Sad News

I know most of you belong to Jen's cancer update group on Facebook, but just in case you have not seen it or I did not get a hold of you via messenger or the phone last night, cheshirejin passed away yesterday afternoon.

She was surrounded by family when she slipped away from us.

Her family is planning a celebration of life this summer so that way it will be a true celebration of life and not a “boo hoo fest” (as Leeza put it), which is how Jen would want it. It will also allow for people traveling great distances to attend. When there is more info regarding services and how the family would like to handle expressions of condolence, Vexed or I will try to be in touch with people to let them know and I will try to put something up here.

Her birthday is next week and I was thinking maybe we, her online family, should do something, but my brain sort of refuses to cooperate with coming up with ideas at the moment. So if anyone has any thoughts, please share.

Madrona members and watchers, Jen had been planning to move madrona_project and madrona_info to DW before she had to go back to the hospital. Vexed and I will be doing that before the winter holiday season. It was Jen's baby and we promised her during the first round of this, that we would keep it going. We are also trying to come up with some sort of holiday for the capital to honor Jen, like a founder's day or a patron goddess day or something. Suggestions and input are welcome and encouraged. Proper posts will go up at the comms eventually.

Does anyone have anyway of contacting n0t_again that is not via LJ? If you do, PLEASE pm/call/im/something me.

I still remember her Black Hole Society. I'll miss her, she really knew how to make everyone smile.

Yeah! I remember that too! I think I still even have my banner tucked away somewhere.

[geeky-ramblings.livejournal.com]

I hope you find it. It would nice to bring it back in Jen's memory.

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

Thanks! It really would!

I found it, Tas! I'd post it, but Photobucket doesn't allow that anymore. >.>

YAY for finding it. That stinks. I thought you could post a photo here on LJ without photobucket. I haven't been on here for so long I don't remember.

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

You can, but not in comments. For that you needed a place like photobucket, which is no longer free to use. *sighs* But at least you seen it now & if you need to snag it, go right ahead.

Let's try this and see if it works . . .

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

You are sooo awesome! How'd you get it to work?

[katleept.livejournal.com]

NP! All I did was follow your link, right click on the picture, left click on Copy Image Address, came back to make my comment, and in the comment put < IMG SRC = "pasted the URL" > without the spaces. I know a little HTML; it's this CSS that gets me lost.

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

Aaah... Don't feel bad, HTML, never mind the CSS, that gets me lost. XD I'm lucky I know how to do what I can do. XD

Kat, I was thinking of emailing n0t-chan & was going to talk to you about it when I see you.

[kattrip033.livejournal.com]

Thank you for doing that, Kira

[kiramaru7.livejournal.com]

I didn't know this dear lady personally, but any death from cancer is one death too many. My fondest thoughts go out to her loved ones at this unspeakably difficult time.

Thank you

Thank you for getting a hold of me - what awful news this is... :( I'm glad she's free of it all, however. Hugs :(

[kattrip033.livejournal.com]

*hug* Just glad I realized Kira had your email.

[katleept.livejournal.com]

It's been days, and I should have said something far earlier than now. But I just still can't get my words to come together. All I can say is I love you, my dear, and ***HUGS and holds on TIGHT***!!

*hug* Thank you. Do you still want the mailing address for the family?
