OMG. I ran with Jack and his (bad news) friends in high school in an entirely different state. Small world, indeed.
Well, damn. That’s just awful.
Dammit, that just sucks. I’m so sorry to hear it. I just really hate it when people I like die. Goodbye Opal. You’ll be missed.
Poor Dominic. Rest in peace, OpalCat. You deserve some.

Aw, burgers. I’m sorry to see this.
This the worst news I’ve heard recently. This is terrible.
About the same age my daughter was when she lost her mother (and I’m assuming by the same cause of death). I hope there’s someone there to tell him that although there may not ever be a day when he doesn’t think about her, if he can just get through this time now there will be the day when she won’t be the first thing he thinks of.
Wow, very sorry to hear this.
What terribly sad news. I wasn’t always exactly her biggest fan, but her distinctive personality was certainly part of what made the SDMB what it is.
ETA: Is there any further information about the circumstances?
That’s…really weird. Coincidences like that always intrigue me.
This makes me sad.
It’s shocking and very sad, especially for her son. We hadn’t seen OpalCat around here in a while, but she was a big presence on the board and left a huge impression that won’t soon fade.
She was one of the first people I met online. She was about the same age as my brother (down to the day). My condolences to her son.
Via con dios, muchacha. My condolences to the family at home and here at SD.
I can’t get her site to load. Too many hits or was it taken down?
Very sad news. May she rest in peace.
Sad, sad news .
Sorry to hear this.
Lots of traffic.
Shit.
