In doing so it depreciates the other amazing people who lost their lives who were LGBT.

We're all people, and we all have lives, histories and people who love us.

Not in anyway meaning to take away from the loss of this wonderful woman

Basically, I'm saying, fuck the haters.

The distinction is that this woman was not gay and in fact a prolific breeder (not slaming mothers) which these sort of preachers seem to love and might be inclined to mourn.

There should not be a distinction but it's the preachers who would make one. I think that's the OP's point.

Both of them pastor rinky dink small time churches (the Tempe church is in a storefront, the Natomas one is in an office park) and they've both figured out that internet trolling is a shortcut to notoriety.

As one who works in a progressive church, please lump all of Christianity in the boat. There are so many of us in the faith community that are grieving deeply over this!
