RIP Stephanie Clarkson, thespian here on LJ

[ron_newman]

I am sorry to report that long-time DSLJ participant Stephanie Clarkson, who used the LJ handle thespian, died this morning (Tuesday, July 19) at Mount Auburn Hospital after a long illness. She was loved by many of us here, and she died much, much too young.

Oh jegus --I saw a few friends paying tribute on Facebook and went "huh that sucks, sorry I didn't know her", but that's because none of them linked her to this name. I *do* know her, in bits and pieces and posts and comments over many many years here at DSLJ, and she will absolutely be missed.

Well, the new illness that killed her was sudden, IMO.

as odd as it is to say sudden and after long illness, I think this might be appropriate here. :/

[ron_newman]

Yes, that's accurate.

Her memory for a blessing.

Oh my, that is awful! I'm very sorry for her friends' and familiy's loss.

I barely knew her, though I did meet her in person a few times years ago, but I've learned over the past few days how important she was to several people I do know. And I appreciated her contributions to the community. This was sudden and unfortunate.

I looked on Facebook to see if maybe I went to highschool with her or we had mutual friends, no to both. But I know her from here. What an awful thing to suffer and pass so young. My heart goes out to her and her loved ones. I'm glad her cat is being taken care of. This is all just so sad. I know we will miss her on here.

How horrible. I only knew her through LJ, mostly through here, but she will be missed.

You (and others here) may also have met her at Arisia, where she was a regular attendee and panelist.

She loved this town, this whole area, so much.
