she passed away at the start of BB4. big brother was her favorite time of year. she always tried to get people that were just here during that time of year to stick around after and participate in the rest of the board. one of the special things that she did was to create a quilt for monica of BB3 after she lost her family member in 9/11. she was my first friend here. and i miss her all the time. especially at the start and the end of big brother. she'd have loved this year!

Fly was "den mother" to a lot of us General Discussion newbies. Always an encouraging word and helpful hand. She is missed very much.

Wow, you guys, she sounds like she was a wonderful person. It's so sweet of you all to remember here like you have been during her favorite season and I'm sure she can feel all the love you guys are sending her.

She was absolutely the bravest kindest person I ever met. She is very missed. She'd be so proud, and I'm glad I knew her even a bit.

I spent a lot of time in archives looking over some of Fly's old posts - trying to find just the right one to give the people who weren't fortunate enough to know her an idea of who Fly was. I think this post does it better than any other. Now keep in mind, with this being our colorful Fly, each paragraph was in a different color. Flyonthwall Sunday, September 16, 2001 - 08:31 am Monica's Quilt - Made With Love A special project is in the making and YOU can be part of it! "Cuppy", is going to make a quilt for Monica from her fan club members! Note: This in not her real name but a nick name she chose for herself. She is a fan! As you know Monica loved to wrap up in the quilt in the BB house, she even wanted to take it home with her when she left. So on behalf of Monica's fan club, "Cuppy" has offered to use her expertise in quilting to put together a special fan club quilt for Monica!! As Monica so often stated: "You reap what you sow", "Cuppy" wants to add on the quilt a special message, "YOU WRAP IN WHAT WE SEW" ! This project will reflect the entire fan club base from all over the world and Internet for Monica! We want Monica to know that we admire her morals and beliefs and have great compassion for her over the news of her missing cousin, Tamatha. After receiving many e-mails asking what we as a fan club group could do to ease Monica's burden, I was fortunate enough to get an e-mail from "Cuppy" asking to do a quilt for Monica. As a collective idea, we thought it would be a wonderful way to get EACH of you who are Monica fans involved! We want to show our love to Monica in a way that will be more valuable than money. We want to wrap her in the warmth of love and friendship. We believe that is what a fan club does in times like these. Give of ourselves in a way that comes from the heart. All YOU need to do to be a part of this wonderful show of love, is to make one square for the quilt! If this sounds like something you would enjoy being a part of, {Please follow these guidelines when submitting your quilt square: 1) Make one square 6x6 inches Please use American Flag colors in RED, WHITE, or BLUE cotton cloth for the background colors on your square. 2) Leave a 1" border around the edge of your square that has no message on it so "Cuppy" can sew them together. Otherwise part of your message will be sewn in when it is pieced together. 3) Place a special message on your square. Paint, embroidery, waterproof marker,silk-screen, beading, sequins, anything that is permanent! Any colors are allowed! Your message can be a scripture, your name, BBFC member name, state, hobbies, or any message you want to place on the square. The only restrictions would be use of profanity, or any pictures or messages reflecting negativity to the fan club or Monica. 5) Please put a card or letter in with your square so these may be sent along with the quilt. If you have a special message or meaning that goes with your square. I'm sure Monica would enjoy reading them! 6) Mail your square to Cuppy at this address: Monica's Quilt C/O Cuppy <> 7) Send your square in a safe envelope. Use your judgment for the best mailing of your creation! Some may work in a simple brown envelope, others may need to be sent in a small box. You decide but please use the best of care! 8)Mail your square before November 8, 2001. "Cuppy" will need time to piece the square together and then do the quilting. This will take some times but our hope is to have it to Monica by or before Christmas. Date will be determined for shipment. As soon as "Cuppy" has all the squares she will quilt them together, take photos,(which will be posted here) and then ship the quilt to Monica. Please pass on this information to anyone who you think would be interested in helping make Monica's Quilt!! Please feel free to e-mail me with any questions or suggestions about this project! <> You have our heartfelt THANKS for giving to this project!! God Bless America! "Cuppy" and FLY And here is a picture of that wonderful quilt.

She was so special.. even after she was too sick to do live feeds herself, she was our cheerleader, often emailing with encouragment and posting in the live feed comments threads.. and she loved her various 'You ROCK!" graphics too. Pamy can you tell that story about the fly on your monitor??

I remember Fly on the Wall too. She had the nicest posts. As I read them I could just picture her clinging to a wall in the Big Brother House watchng everything. I miss her too.

If I recall correctly, didn't Fly leave some of her "estate" to TVCH. So that they could do better things here? Wasn't there a server and/or software upgrade? She really loved this place. I think she did a lot for us, and we did a lot for her. She will always be missed!

I think a lot of people made donations to the site in her memory. She was a special person.

I never knew her, but I've read this thread and heard all the wonderfulness about her. And with BB just around the corner, it just doesn't seem right for this thread to be at the bottom of the page... BUMP!

she was one of my most favorite people, she was so friendly and welcoming to me when I came to tvch. I remember the quilt too and how much work she put into it, seems cuppy didn't do what she said she would and fly made sure that quilt got finished. I still miss her around here especially BB time

Fly held a lot of newbie hands when we first started posting, myself included. She was a very special lady.
