The O Deck people have mentioned us (in the comments), which is a little weird, except for the fact that I'm doing the exact same thing, thus creating a whole Inception of references to ita's communities: [link]
Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

A place where we can talk about ita, miss ita, and share information about memorials. The hugging started over here in Natter.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
From that remembrance thread:
I'd forgotten she knew people in the industry. She was a stuntswoman wasn't she?
See, I vaguely remember something about that. This is that larger than life thing and it is more pronounced when you start piecing together aspects of her life as a whole.
Ah ha ha! She'd love that. I hope she's lurking from within.

t waves Hi, O-deckers!

Yeah, I think I'm mostly stuck in denial. It's such an odd feeling, to know that she's gone, and yet to also be able to go back and see her words anytime I want. Her words were how I knew her, and they're still there.
That's where I am.
I've really appreciated reading the couple of links over to O-Deck. There's something really touching about knowing something of this other group of people who had such appreciation and admiration for ita. There are so many of those in the world that I'll never see; it's nice to see this one.

That picture of her with Colin's Little Man just killed me again- they had such a beautiful friendship.
Also hello O-deckers! I love that you love her too.

She is passing into legend.
I remember watching the awful US Coupling because her friend Colin was in it. And mailing her something to his address (a dozen years ago or so) because she was house sitting or something. Think it was the garnet bracelet that resembled something she'd been admiring. Don't even remember where the bracelet originally came from.

Yes! And I told her to tell him he was the only good thing about it (and that he was way hotter than his UK counterpart, though I doubt she told him that).

At least US Coupling introduced us to Jay Harrington?

I hadn't seen the picture CF posted. Such a beautiful picture of her!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
We've collected just under 7k for ita's family.
The money will be used to pay for their lodging and misc. travel and funeral expenses, memorial brunch, and obituary.
We're going to pack up her apartment this weekend.
The family would like to start a scholarship fund in her name in Jamaica, where education $$ will go a long way.
