Hey Dude...

Well, it's been a good long while since i've been here, and i was truly shocked when I heard what happened to Patty, aka Sadie.
My deepest sympathy goes out to you Nele, despite our odds. Patty was always a friend and will be missed by many. I am still shocked. She always maintained a certain amount of humanity about her, which is something not too many people can do in this little world of trolling and what not.
I remember the countless conversations she and I had... "girl talk" i'll call them. Conversations which she and I have not had for a couple of years. And i'll never forget her contacting me frantically trying to learn the technical backside of building a table... "Carie, what the hell is wrong with my table?" God, it seems like forever ago.
I'll also never forget the oh so unforgettable conversation about our favorite... um... foods. yeah, that's it. heh
I am so sorry for the pain you must be feeling and truly hope that you can feel her with you always. The spirit never dies.
Every year on her birthday, eat your favorite steak with A-1 sauce on it. I'm sure you know she loved A-1.
My thoughts are with you.

Sincerely,
Carie
