o/` Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday.... o/`

[mdlbear]

Got word via this post by kshandra that my long-time friend meglimir lost her fight against cancer this evening at about 8:30EST, three years to the day after she was given two months to live. Damn, but she fought a good fight.

Robin Hilp; known online as meglimir, RubyMeg, Ruby Tuesday, rolybear... we met on alt.callahans years ago, probably the first friend I made online and later met in Real Life. Our older kids are the same age.

She is survived by her husband sammyd, sons grendies and ratlan, godson dajonjon, and an unguessable number of friends both online and off line.

sammyd's last set of posts are heartrendingly sweet and sad; you should go read them.

sammyd's announcement of her passing is here.
