I just heard that the person in my writers group with the brain tumor died yesterday. She passed away peacefully, losing her heroic battle with cancer.
I didn’t know her very well. We’d exchanged critiques as well as supportive emails cheering each other’s successes, but never spoken in real life. She was a talented writer with wit, humor, and a distinctive worldview. I’m saddened that I’ll never get a chance to meet her in person.
*hugs*. So sorry.
Thank you.
I’m really sorry. It always worries me that someone I only know online might pass away and I’ll never find out.
Roz had a large circle of online friends, and her best friend/roommate has been keeping all of us up-to-date on her condition once she became too weak to type on her own. I’m very grateful for that.
ugh.
I’m sorry. I hate to see anyone have to go that way. ;_;
There’s a great unfairness and tragedy to her untimely passing. She was a brave and talented woman.
I am very sorry to hear this, Eugie. I’m glad the end was easy, at least, and I’m sure she led a rich and full life.
Is someone going to ask aburt to add her to the “In Memoriam” section on the Critters web site?
Thanks for reminding me. I’ve sent off a note to Andrew. I suspect I won’t be the only one to do so as the writers group that I interacted with her most with is comprised of ex- and/or current Critters members.
I am sorry. I knew several other people who knew her, but I never “met” her online or otherwise myself. Still, it is always sad.
Thank you. Roz had a large circle of online friends around the world. I’m not surprised you know people who knew her. She was a vivacious and personable writer.

Thank you.
Very sad.
If I don’t see one of my friends online or posting somewhere, I get worried.
Take care,

Me too. I’m very grateful that Roz’s best friend was thoughtful enough to keep us all informed. I’m really feeling for her, now.
So sorry, Eugie. My condolences.
