In Memory of @Rose Vortex...

[RogerWilco]

@Kalkin Thank you for your kind words. I don't want to make this thread about my friend, he can post his own story if he wants to.

 

This thread is about you and your loss and RoseVortex and what seems to have been a life well lived but taken at too young an age.

It looks like you had a lot of good times and CoH was a happy part of that. I hope those happy memories help in softening your pain.

I am happy to have read the stories of the people who knew her.

This entire memorial thread was touching. RIP @Rose Vortex. I feel like I knew you through the words of the people whose lives you touched.

Well... This is a lot to revisit.

 

As long as this was brought back I will share a bit of my personal psyche.  I have a huge issue with death, mortality, human frailty, and the finite time we have.  This is why I am fascinated by vampire lore, undeath, etc. There are other reasons as well, but my issues with death are a huge part of that.

 

I never went back to this thread after I posted a brief message of condolence.  I revisit many threads, but stuff like this is too painful.  Even an unknown fellow gamer is too close.

 

Now I have looked at the pictures, the love, the struggle, the determination, and a bit of the life of Rose.  I am grateful it was shared.  We are all marching towards oblivion.  May we do so with a small amount of the grace and courage that Rose displayed.
