Oh, no way! Gosh, she was so sweet. God bless her. :(

kevinbeetle: "Yes. When her career washes up and her and Gavin move to Galveston, you will meet her at Hot Topic shopping for a Japanese cheerleader outfit.
This is absolutely horrible... I wish I would have gotten the chance to speak to her more... I just don't even know what to say.... This is just a horrible time. Let's keep together and try to bring ourselves up to a higher place.
:(
I've never talked to her, but I knew of her and knew what she was going thru from her posts. I know she meant a lot to all of you on here...this is truly a sad sad day :(
Rest in Peace.
same here...I didn't know her but I think of all the people here I know and how I'd feel if it happened to them..actually I can't think about it.
From what everyone says, she was a great human being..wish I'd be able to meet her.
She was an integral part of the community here and her wisdom and kindness will not be forgotten, even by those of us who aren't here very often and didn't necessarily interact with her on a 1-on-1 basis. May she Rest In Peace. Condolences to her friends and family.
Fuck this sucks man. I post in waves here, but when I would return after a few months she would always remember to PM me with encouragement and kind words. To me that is the sign of a good person, with a good heart. This is truly a sad occurance, hopefully she is in a happier place now. :(
This is sad news. Never got to know her in the way I've got to know some here, but always loved the way she weighed in discussions as a sound of reason. I respected her a lot and miss her presence.
Hippiemom, you seemed to me to be the coolest mom out there. Peace and love to your family and friends. I can only imagine the heartache they're going through to lose such a beautiful person.
Thank you, cutback for posting this over on the MT. I didn't think I could watch it today, not today. That song makes me cry on the happiest of days. Today, I thought it might just break me into little pieces.
However, strangely, watching it I became much calmer and stopped sobbing at least for now.
Hippiemom, I'm going to forever miss your presence on this board. Peace and love to you and your family.
Walking can be a real trip

Rest in Peace Laura. It's not fair that the best people are often taken away too soon. My thoughts are with your family.

I didn't know her as well as others on here but she was always seemed super nice. Sent me a PM once to give me a head's up on a loon etc. Just seemed very cool. My thoughts are with her family and loved ones right now. You will be missed, hippiemom. May you always be at future PJ shows in spirit.

I don't know what to say. This very sad. My condolences to her family, friends and to everyone here that knew her. I first read about this and was speechless so I went downstairs to plod around with some work and "Throw your arms around me" was playing on the radio. That'll be my song for her now. RIP Hippiemom the worlds a poorer place without you.
I'm going to miss her very much! She was the sweetest person here! I'm going to miss her posts on the moving train very much as she was one of my political comrades.
I never met her in person but I feel like I lost a very good friend.
Crushed :(
"...believe in lies...to get by...it's divine...whoa...oh, you know what its like..."
I never spoke with her or met her but I did read her posts
She is at peace
My Condolences to her Family
Edit : It's not a PJ song but I thought it fit well for those of you that were close with her
"In Loving Memory"
Thanks for all you've done
I've missed you for so long
I can't believe you're gone
You still live in me
I feel you in the wind
You guide me constantly
I've never knew what it was to be alone, no
Cause you were always there for me
You were always there waiting
And ill come home and I miss your face so
Smiling down on me
I close my eyes to see
And I know, you're a part of me
And it's your song that sets me free
I sing it while I feel I can't hold on
I sing tonight cause it comforts me
I carry the things that remind me of you
In loving memory of
The one that was so true
Your were as kind as you could be
And even though you're gone
You still mean the world to me
I've never knew what it was to be alone, no
Cause you were always there for me
You were always there waiting
But now I come home and it's not the same, no
It feels empty and alone
I can't believe you're gone
And I know, you're a part of me
And it's your song that sets me free
I sing it while I feel I can't hold on
I sing tonight cause it comforts me
I'm glad he set you free from sorrow
I'll still love you more tomorrow
And you will be here with me still
And what you did you did with feeling
And You always found the meaning
And you always will
And you always will
And you always will
And I know, you're a part of me
And it's your song that sets me free
I sing it while I feel I can't hold on
I sing tonight cause it comforts me
