I am saddened to hear this news. As I have scrolled through this thread, and the archives, I have noticed how many people, including myself, were brought out of lurkdom by a post by Fly, and welcomed by her with open arms. It's a special person that can bring someone out of their shells, and introduce them to a wonderful place as this. She will truly be missed!

This is very sad news and I extend my condolences to her family and friends.
When I first started lurking her nick and her posts always put a smile on my face and many a chuckle.
Fly will be sorely missed at TVCH.

" A BIG HELLO! TO each of you!

So nice to see many names again this year!
I'll be sure to pop around now and again to see what's up with the gang!

I have enjoyed so much our BB gang here and can't wait to join in again as I can!
My DSL is once again hooked up, but still no lap top, but I do hope that can be arranged at some point. As many of you know my health issues won't allow me to stay with it for long periods of time any longer.

I will still enjoy reading the LFP's and watch as other carry on a time honored tradition!
What a great place huh?

TO each of you who choose to give of your time doing the feeds, THANK you in advance and remember, YOU ROCK!!!!

I'll see you all and try my best to catch up on each of you as I have time and energy.
Thank you for all the prayers and love you give!
What an exciting time, with Big Brother starting once again!

Take care and ROCK ON!!

FLyonthwall"

Very sad news. She is so missed.

I loved her posts and loved her screen name here at TVCH.

Peace in heaven Fly.

Like many others here I always stopped to read Fly's posts even when I had lost interest in the discussion. Fly you will be missed.

As a tribute to Fly we should remember how important we all are to each other. We are worldwide, except for this board we would never know each other. Thanks to everyone who brightens my day. Thanks for posting and making me laugh and cry.
Hats off to Fly thanks for teaching us how important we all are especialy to each other!

I am astonished to find how truly sad I am at this news. I have always appreciated Fly's posts, and although I was aware she had health issues from some of her comments, I had no idea how serious. I was glad this year to see her post in the welcome thread. This is the first and only on-line community I've ever been part of, and she was a major player. I'm really going to miss her. My sincere condolences to her friends and family.

We say we didn't "really" know her, but I think it's obvious that we did. Everyone describes the same warm,kindhearted, spunky, generous, funny person. How could someone we never met in real life, leave such a mark? I don't know, but Fly sure did.

Here's a favorite prayer of mine:

Hopi Prayer

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint in the snow.
I am the sunlight on the ripened grain.
I am the gentle Autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush,
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry:
I am not there,
I did not die.

Fly will be missed by me as well, I too have always enjoyed her posts and the great job she did in the live feeds. She was indeed a kind person and always very pleasant to exchange messages with. She went all out for Monica with doing the things that needed to be done for the quilt. I am really sorry she is not with us this big brother season but I know she is in spirit. My sympathy goes out to her family and all her friends here in the clubhouse. Fly would love all these wonderful messages everyone is leaving. God be with you all.

i sit here at work, with tears that cannot stop

i would never have stopped being a "lurker" if it hadn't been for fly. she said to me once "your typing in little letters is the soul of e.e. cummings coming out in you, and you should embrace that!" i used to love seeing her posts, she was one person who truly loved the show and this clubhouse. a fine and lovely woman who will be truly missed by all who knew her.

remember tonight dear friends, gather your friends and family together, hold them, kiss them, love them... we are on this earth for a very short time

*Sigh*

Flyonthewall was a favorite of mine, too.

this is very sad.

I'm glad she could have fun here with us in spite of her illness, and I'm glad she was appreciated by so many for her contributions. I know I was among them and that, at least, is something.

I didn't know FLy but certainly enjoyed her posts & appreciated all the joy she brought to everyone here. May she rest in peace.

Kathyb - that prayer is beautiful. Thanks for posting it.

I am so thankful that I had the opportunity to be touched, even in a small way, by this kind and gentle soul. The gifts she gave us all of her time doing LFPs and her friendship are things I will treasure.

I read in her posts of the pain she was in, and take comfort in knowing that the pain is gone.

I will miss seeing her around here, and send my best wishes to her husband, family, and friends.

Flyonthewall owned the most distinctive nickname on this board. From the time I arrived and began posting, I knew where to find her and what to expect. A gentle woman who made friends easily and expressed herself eloquently. I am saddened. I sincerely send my condolences.

When a loved one or friend becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure. (old gypsy saying). The memory of "Flyonthewall" is a definite treasure......

I am so saddened by this news. FLy was one of the first people to welcome me to the boards. I'll never forget her generous heart. I'll never forget FLy. What a warm, caring, sweet lady. She will truly be missed.

Thanks Jan. I had printed them out and was reading them during work today, laughing and crying all day. It is hard to believe a woman I never met was able to touch me so deeply. She was a great lady and will be missed by more people than she could ever imagine!
My thoughts and prayers are with Fly's family.

Truly a personality that jumped off the screen. The absence of Fly's posts, especially her live feed transcriptions will leave an empty space here.

God bless Fly's family at this time. It was a pleasure to have "known" her through this group.
