1. She was one of a kind.
Friendly, sensitive, and all around nice person. She is truly missed.

6. Thank you, Strong Atheist
Wherever you are newyawker99, I remember....bittersweet.
I came to DU as an activist looking for connections. I did not know how huge DU was.
My days on the streets took a toll on my being...I have since put down my signs and have retired to the lounge.
Those were the days....And that's when she welcomed me..

Thank you for keeping her DU memory alive with all you do:hug:

peace~

8. I knew there was some connection between you and I.
I had to take myself off the streets and out of the action, too. We'll always be activists at heart, tho, right my sistah? :hug: :hug:

19. There you are....
You know and understand:hug: It sucked the life out of me...
We didn't end the war, did we? But we did what we did in the moment...we knew we had a moral obligation.
Had to let it go....yet, like you, activist at heart...
Sisters of the Heart.

peace~

12. Ah. She was the legendary hospitality person who greeted everyone, ran the
birthday/anniversary and MILESTONES threads for years, and was kind to everyone. She is much loved on DU...

13. She is indeed missed
Her welcome made me feel so warm inside. It was a little intimidating stepping into such a large group where so many people so obviously knew each other pretty well.

I hope she is doing well.

21. Two years ago? That long?
Edited on Wed Sep-02-09 07:11 AM by RFKHumphreyObama
Though having said that, it does seem like an eternity. I miss NY99 more than ever. Not only was she a wonderful presence on DU but she was a great moderator and friend whom I loved working with during my various mod tours. She was truly a wonderful, sweet and caring person and I have many fond memories of her. I hope she's OK and I hope one day we will see her again

Thanks for remembering Strong Atheist:thumbsup:
