    She's been on my mind since learning the news. Sitting here, watching this beautiful moon rising, I think of JB, their children, how much of a loss this must be for them.

    She and I weren't close and shared exchanges both kind and contentious.

    But I'll say this - after having been off the boards for several years, I started poking my head in here to read various threads in late 2011. Maybe times were different, but I loved, really appreciated, the gentleness and pluckiness she gave off, and when my back went out the following January and I was stuck home for a few days, I decided to sign up again and participate.

    She played a part in that. And, for the all the people I've come to know here, the new ideas I've come to learn - all of it - I thank her.

    Thirty, you made a good point about actual people behind our monikers.

    Looking at the website set up for her (posted on mickey's thread on AET), that really hit home.

    Anyway, both Pandora and JB are in my thoughts this evening.

    Think I'll go back to moon-watching for a little while till my husband comes home.

    Need to hug him tightly.

    Does anybody write more heartful responses or posts then hedonist? Such a class act.

    Thank you. Wish I'd shared some of those thoughts with her, but if JB's reading any of these posts, then maybe I have, we have. And I hope it helps just a bit.

    Someone a while back suggested our user images should be photos of ourselves.

    That website struck a cord within me as well.

    Have a nice night Hedo... that moon is the brightest moon I've seen in a long time.

    This is very sad news. Pandora and I had some strong differences and some cross words between us a few times but we also both tried to balance that out with good words for each other and I'm glad we did exchange a few kind PM's with each other at times. This really goes to show how important it is for us to be civil with each other no matter how strong the differences because in the end, unless that person is doing us bodily harm or something really bad like that it's all just talk and we're all basically wanting the same thing and we're all basically decent people.

    R.I.P. Pandora. I'm very sorry for the harsh words we had for each other but I'm very grateful for the good ones.

    Best wishes to her family.

    Very sad. I remember reading a lot of her posts and it reminds me of all the people over the years that have posted and haven't in a long long while.
