I just stumbled across the “Lynn Bodoni Memorial Fundraiser” thread in MPSIMS and thought, “Wait… what? When did THAT happen?” Then I found this thread.

Crap. We’ll miss you. RIP Lynn and condolences to the family.

I do wish she would have let you do that, but yeah, so not her style.

**Lynn** would sometimes post about her health issues in the mini-rant threads, so while this isn’t a shock it is very sad.

I couldn’t read the whole thread because I kept crying.

My heart hurts for her loved ones. She will be missed.

I have sigs turned off so I never knew that hers quoted me. Thank you, Lynn.

Word association for Admin for me a longtime lurker and intermittent poster is Tuba and Lynn. Cecil like in my eyes.

Dammit, funerals should be held so the person could know what we think before they go so they could know how we feel.

Lynn may you be surrounded by purring nuzzling kittens wherever you are.
