If Allyson is okay with my doing it, I'd be fine with y'all giving out my profile addy.
Another option would be for the members of that group to join the Facebook Buffistas page, because I would ask people to post pictures there.
Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

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

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Allyson, that's a damned good idea. I'll help if I can. I have collected all the photos that have been posted on the Buffistas FB today. They're all available for use, as long as their owners don't mind.
I keep remembering the b/w one of Betsy and ita and her cane at Deb's.

I don't post very much, but I do try to keep up with people's lives.
I've been following this community since it was back on Table Talk, and ita has always been a part of it. She shone, but never overshadowed others. When it was needed, she gave of her time and effort to make this place, and help it grow. She had hard times, and strange times, and she stayed with us through them.
The only thing left to say is, I wish I'd made the effort to get to know her better.

Yes, there are two other online groups of which I am a part that ita was involved in (one still exists, one defunct but I am still in touch with people) that I broke the bad news to.

Our wings are not tired.
Ginger, I don't know about them joining Buffistas. I can't speak for others, but I truly appreciate that the FB Buffistas group is just us.
What I can do, and probably makes more sense, is have them forward stuff to me, I can compile, and send all to you.

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
Thank you so much Ginger. I have to get some sleep so we can talk in the morning.

I have no pictures, but if there is any kind of help I can offer, Ginger, let me know.

Allyson, you're already doing so much. It's not at all dramatic or bad that you're recognizing both something that needs to be done, and that it's something you're not able to do that we can get done. 300 footprints, and all.
Plei said what I was thinking, and far more eloquently than I'm capable of right now. Allyson, take care of yourself.
Ginger, thank you.

At Krav, K told one of the instructors who knew her. His response was "fucking glitter!" Remember her full on glee of using a sparkly Lush bathbomb before Krav and then getting glitter everywhere. She was always stoked to get her partners all glittery before sending them home.
