Can we have a remembrance thread for all we've lost here on DU?

[CatWoman]

I've had the pleasure to meet and know so many awesome people here, and mourned their being taken away from us so soon.

Kef
Playahata
Jeff
One Eighty
5thGenDemocrat


just for starters...............

Don't know who else remembers him, but that was a big loss to me--even though I never met him.

6. OH Wow, didn't know about 5thGendemocrat

I figured he must have moved on....didn't know he passed away. Sad to read this,and sad about the loss of DUers, known and unknown.

10. How nice it would be if we could post their pics and maybe

a little blurb about who they were "offline." When Scott (Khephra) died, there were threads with pics and I know that ZenLefty posted a great post of the mini pyramid several helped to create for him.

At any rate, it is nice to remember them, even if we only list their screen names. (With a nod to Pink Floyd), how I Wish They Were Here.

12. Occasional poster merci_me passed on Wednesday morning.

She may not have had a huge post count here, but she was a lifelong hardcore Dem, and she introduced me to DU.

13. If some of you knew just how many have left other ways...

you might want to remember some of them as well. That is where my heart is today...with them.

18. Edit - I thought the reference was to those who no longer posted on FB

b/c they moved on due to the tenor of the posts.
THAT would be an interesting thread, also, imo.

15. nicknameless.

Catwoman, you might remember her during the poisoned pet food horrors of a few years back. She covered that a lot, and she was also active in Election reform, a forum which I seem to recall you occasionally popping into.
