My deepest condolences to you, Me's family and friends. Had she been sick a long time? I saw that her last post was more than a month ago.

I PM her on June 25the because I hadn't seen her around for awhile and she replied that she was in the hospital for about 10 days. They didn't know what was caused it.. here I'll post Me's words..

I wonder if they ever figured out what was going on with her. Such sad news.

I'm going to ask her husband when I send this link to him later today.. and I will let you know.

I always wonder why people had to go.. and Now Me had this mysterious illness that Docs didn't know why.. the last I heard.

💛💜💚💙💖

Such sad news.

the link to this OP.. but I didn't ask because there was so much to say.

Maybe we'll find out someday what happened to our dear kind Me.

There are Heart of hers she posted and I'm sending them on..

💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙

It's sad that you and Me were never able to meet, though you don't live anywhere near New York.

can feel this way about someone who I don't even know what they look like.

But that's the age of the internet.. Words are Powerful and over the years Kindness & Compassion make a Lasting Impact.

These are Me's hearts she's posted...

💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙

I'm in shock.

It's so hard. Me liked to post Angels & 💛💜💚💙💖

People you’d otherwise never meet, talk to, or get close to. It’s a “thing” about this place.

And we come together not just to gab, gossip, scheme, or commiserate, but also to mourn - many of us having never met the lost one, or each other.

Magic it is. And sometimes it’s sad magic. Thanks for letting us know, Cha. We’ll all miss her, too. Right along with ya.

Frequently I'm very surprised to learn that someone I've interacted with is a different gender/age/etc. than I originally thought. And usually I'm amazed to learn what some of you have gone through in life, over time.

Thanks for posting this heartfelt remembrance, Cha.

What a sweet thing to wish.

Me and I became friends on the Plame Threads. It turned out we were distant relatives.

that, H20 Man.

💛💜💚💙💖

her children's book for my grandson.

It has been a strange ten days. I've had a number of old friends die. But this hits the hardest.

the Hippo Book to my Granddaughter last year and I bought one for me.

Sorry about your other friends passing on.

This has been really shocking.. more so because we had been PM starting on June 25th about her being in the hospital and home again but feeling "weak".. and then I didn't[ hear anything more after I PMed the last time on July 30th.

I got really worried and sent another card to her home and still nothing until I got a card from her husband telling me she had passed.

Me's hearts she's posted..

💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙 💛💙

what happened? I loved her. I am so sad to learn this.

Rest in peace lovely Me.

What happened to her? I wish I had known she was ill.

days and home again "weak".

These are Me's words in her first PM to me after I contacted her 'cause I hadn't seen her around..

It helps to know what was happening. Maybe even gives me a little closure, which I needed.

I've known her so long, I guess I thought she would always be there and I took that for granted.

I knew more but it doesn't feel right asking her husband now.

It's really nice to meet someone who was also close to Me on DU. I thought of her as always being there too.

💛💜💚💙💖

She will be missed here by many, even though few of us knew her as well as you did.
Thank you for letting us know. Too often DUers disappear, and I fear they have passed but will never be sure.

I hadn't seen her around in awhile so I PM her June 25th. Turns out she had been in the hospital for 10 days.. but she was home then and "weak"..

Me's words..

favorites. I remember her posts especially from the Hillary campaign era where she came to my attention as a decent and common sense Democrat. She remained a favorite of mine. I’m shocked. 😢

Thanks Cha for posting this. I saw it on the front page and am glad I did because I don’t always check many forums.

And sorry for your loss, Cha. Sounds like you two had a very nice connection. She will be so missed.

I'm grateful you know Me.. she was the best Hillary Supporter.. you can understand what a Heartbreaking unbearable loss this is for her Family & Friends.

💛💜💚💙💖

I'm saddened to hear of Me's passing. May She find peace.

And to peace to you, too, Cha. I feel great empathy for you and Her family and friends.

so surreal.. and all this outpouring of Love for Me is so Heartwarming.

I'll be sending this link to her family in New York.

Loss is never easy.

for you cha & for the group

Mahalo for your Kind & Thoughtful words.

What a loss.

All that we love deeply becomes a part of us. All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming. When it seems that our sorrow is too great to be borne, let us think of the great family of the heavy-hearted into which our grief has given us entrance.
