Unfortunately, today I received this email...

On behalf of the family of Bobbi, of Flyonthwall, as she goes by here, I wanted to get a message to her special friends here at the clubhouse.

On July the 12th, she passed away due to complication with her lengthy illness.
We were all aware of her huge interest in Big Brother series. She shared it all with us, and all her posting she did here. This was a fun interest for her and I know she enjoyed it very much. Mostly because of all her friends she often spoke of at "The Clubhouse".
She knew what was possible, and made us lists of things to follow up on. (Just like her, controlling things all the way! She often joked about it and made sure I was up to speed on her note taking.) In her booklet she has so many places we have to visit and contacts to make. This is not an easy thing right now as you can imagine. So forgive me if the wording here is not gentle or informative enough. I'm sure you can understand my distress. We do not have a complete list of her email addresses, nor whom we should or should not contact, so we felt this was the best way to handle this. We apologize for this, and hope that this message will be posted so all can be notified. Mailing each of you is just not possible, and for that we are truly sorry.

Her wishes are being carried out as she requested. Everything has been family only and very private. We all know her online experiences formed many friendships. From her Lupus group to many of the message boards she visited helping others find answers to their own health issues. She was very concerned that we followed her direction on which sites to contact. We are following her request to the best of our ability at this time. One such request was to ask if any of you want to do something for us, or her, please don't feel it is necessary. It makes us uncomfortable to even speak of this issue, but we wanted to let you all know how we feel.
What she would be most proud of is if you made a donation to this sites on her behalf. (in place of flowers or cards to the family) We all know how much you cared about her, and we are grateful you all took her into your hearts and had a friendship with her here. We know that would mean a lot to her. (or to the charity of your choosing, would be just as fine in this case, we suggest the Lupus foundation or MS foundation).
Thank you all for caring and spending time getting to know our little "Fly".
With deepest regards,
Bobbi, Flyonthewall's family
Signed: Her Sis-in-Law


You will be missed Flyonthwall, God Bless.

Oh wow...I'm very sorry to hear of this . She's been here at TVCH as long as I have -- if not longer and she will be missed terribly.

I never had the pleasure of meeting Fly in real life. But she touched my heart in so many ways. I will truly miss her.

A wonderful, open person who gave so much to everyone around her.

Her shining spirit will certainly be missed here on Earth.

I did not have the opportunity to know her personally, but I remember her as one of my favorite LF posters over the last couple of years. My condolences to all of you who were forunate enough to be her friend.

Aww man. This is very sad news. One of my all time favorite members. I really came to love her posting in BB2, felt extremely sad when she had to cut back posting last year. I really don't know what to say, just very sad news.

May He raise her up on eagle's wings.
Bear her on the breath of dawn.
Make her to shine like the sun.
And hold her in the palm of His hand.

I remember Fly, in my early lurking days. I remember Fly because she helped get me out of "lurker mode".

She will be missed. Peace and more happiness to you, Fly.

Oh this is such sad news. Fly was so kind to me last year during my own health problems and was always so giving and caring. My heart is really sore right now. She will be greatly missed.

Fly was one of my favorite posters. I lurked for a year reading and enjoying her posts. When I started posting she was one of the first people to greet me.
I just reread Fly's last post on June 28, that post shows what a kind loving person she was. I will miss her dearly.
I want to thank her family for taking the time to let us know. I know what a hard time this is for them and to take the time to write us shows they are as kind and loving as Fly.

Flyonthewall was instrumental in my coming out of "lurk" mode too! She will be sorely missed. My sympathy to the family.

I waited for her to pop in pre-BB4 and was so disappointed to hear she wouldn't be able to post but I just hadn't imagined.

I remember Fly as not just a great LFP but also as a great advocate for all the other Live Feed Posters.

so sad.
