Such sad news

I could always tell a WD post without looking at the name of the poster because of her writing style - intelligent, witty, articulate, kind, funny, even whimsical at times and always, always gentle. She was one of a kind and will be missed.

My thoughts are with her loved ones.
Yes - you've put that so well.

Not just on here but on GD too - a very wise and knowledgeable lady her posts were always worth reading.

I think I would have enjoyed her company in RL.

If anyone knows how to, I think we should ask the mods to pin this thread.

Caroline. I'm a bit wary of giving away too much personal information on a forum where people can feel more comfortable with a username.
Oh yes, of course. I wasn't asking just for lots of information about her, I just thought given the sad news people might want to leave messages to her with her actual name.

Rest in peace, Caroline

I agree.

BIB - You most certainly would have Penny. She was hilarious company, and she had had such an interesting life, that you could listen to her stories all day. We all told her she should write a book.

May she rest in peace. I never post on here as I am always a lurker but felt Wanted to on this occasion as always read her posts. I am really sorry to all her family and friends but please take comfort in knowing she was and still is a much respected person in all who came across her on these forums. I am really sorry that she died and just goes to show you can't take anything for granted. It certainly put things into perspective.

I've just been too upset to post about the show tonight. Goodbye, dear Wonkey. It's so hard to think we won't be reading your posts here any more.
