As some of you may know at this point, Jenny's mom passed away last night. She had been very sick for quite some time and recently it took a turn for the worse. I'm sure I can speak for all of us when I say she will be in our thoughts today.
If you'd like, you can issue condolences on this thread, or just PQ a personal thought to her, I know she'd appreciate it…
A collection for flowers is going to be set up on the Nightgig front page if you'd like to contribute.
Edit:::
I threw a page together for anyone that would like to contribute a virtual sympathy card. I know BK would really appreciate you guys using your great talent to express to her how you feel.
Just PQ or email me or Ozone to contrib. Thanks guys.

Black Kitty and family in our thoughts today :(
The loss of a loved one is always hard but a parent is a very difficult blow. I don't know what your beliefs are but I will say a prayer for your mother and your family.
It is hard to offer empathy from so far away and anything we can say is sadly inadiquite and cliche, but despite that I want you to know that you are part of a community here and that community is here for you. I'm sure we all offer our sympathy and want you to know that we are sorry for your loss.
I wish I had something profound to say that could sum it all up and help you but I don't, and I'm sorry for that. I haven't really experienced much of death yet in my life and I can't imagine what it is like to loose someone that close.
I hope you can take some solace in the fact that we all care about you and offer what respects we can.
Oh Jenny. I'm so sorry.
My wife lost her brother a couple of weeks ago suddenly. She said the strangest part was not really "knowing" how to feel. Everyone expects you to feel something without letting you know what they expect. Be easy on yourself. Rest. Eat and sleep.
My prayers of comfort go out to you and your family.

Jen's always been one of the sweetest people you'll ever meet, she's just a lovely person and that's just from my interactions and friendship with her through the internet. It's not fair that her mother died, that's what bothers me most about this.
So anyone, please, I urge you to let her know how appreciated she is, and maybe pitch in some money for the flowers.
I'm sorry to hear about your loss too. It's true what someone up above said, when I lost my father, I had no idea really what to feel. It hadn't been a surprise but it was still difficult, doubley so cause I had no one with me at the time.
I hope you have good people with you now.
Hi everyone, I just want to say that I appreciate everyone's warm thoughts and gestures so very VERY much. I actually wasn't expecting any of this and am still speechless about all the PQs I've received (and even more speechless about the idea of flowers.)
I'm terrible with words but I really want to convey to everyone how much it means to me. I've overused the word "appreciate" for the past few weeks now but only because I can't really think of any other word. The only other way I know how though is to just explain how things went.
My mother has had cancer for about half a year now and due to a complication, she was in the hospital for two weeks. I rotated with my aunt and spent every other night at the hospital because my mother could not be left alone. During the day we were both there. During the last three days I was barely home and slept at the hospital for three nights in a row (hospital floors are not meant for sleeping.)
Due to certain circumstances at home, the doctors had turned to me as the one with the power of attorney for the first week. So in addition to not sleeping and barely eating, I had to listen to all the doctors who came in to explain my mother's condition.
So when I was home, I was generally very depressed and upset. When I first took my mother there, she could not even identify who I was to the doctor. I had not expected people to know about my situation (although I'm okay with people knowing) but the PQs and the warm wishes really helped. It made me feel so much better to know that people thought of me and my family and that people cared. I know people are nice and there have been so much kindness for the past few months but I simply did not expect people to say anything.
So it has been very VERY wonderful and I want everyone to know that I appreciate it more than words can ever express.
