wow, a member here since 2000, died on October 2nd. I found out on Christmas Day. She was a lovely and funny older lady (her screen name stood for wise old woman, and she was wise indeed), and I miss her a lot. How I wish I had followed my instinct and called to check on her prior to that. (She did have a son in the same town--I didn't mean that I was responsible for checking on her. I just wish I had taken one more opportunity to let her know she was appreciated, because it's too late now.)
