    And speaking of Niki, I remembered that once Starby said that Niki would go out even if it's snowing...

    Yea, sorry my reply was late, but it was difficult finding the right words to say, and I wanted to do right by starby :)

    Bear, everyone handles death differently. I'm sure that many people won't post, not because they don't care, but because it's too hard.

    You did right by Starby. You could never do wrong. Just being who you are, that's all we need. :)

    Unky, Starby actually sent that picture to me once. She loved it, thought it was hilarious. It is.

    When I scrolled down and saw the huge picture of Jo the tears just started running down my cheeks. I will keep her "friend" status on my profile forever.

    I will be picking up the card today, to send to her family.

    If there's anything anyone would like me to add, just write it here. Perhaps underline "For Starby's card" and then write what you would like me to include.

    I'll be sending it off come Wednesday.

    Thank you, not as beautiful as the photo in it though :)
    Was hard to make... spent a while on the frame then quickly pasted the photo in.

    I love that flashlight photo Unky, very funny ;)

    Oh, I wasn't aware of that. Was just googling, then saw that one :)

    I've been off the boards for a while due to my mother's deteriorating health only to find out about Starby.

    She will be missed. I still can't quite believe it.

    May you rest in peace, Starby.

    I have hundreds of emails from Starby, I've been going through them this last week. I posted some of the funny ones, read through some of the ones where we just chatted.

    I would get dozens of emails every day, funny pictures, videos, some that just said "thank you for being a friend".

    I saved them all.

    I'm glad I did.

    Here's one that she sent me.

    Another one of my favorites from Jo. :)

    One of the greatest secrets of life is having patience --

    knowing when to do what, kinda like the song says,

    'you gotta know when to hold em, know when to fold em' .

    Hehe, keep 'em coming Alty, definitely bringing the mood up, for a duck she had a brilliant sense of humor :D

    She loved sending stuff like that.

    Every day I'd open my email and find tons of stuff from her. Some sappy, most hilarious.

    She loved to laugh. That's what she'd want us to do.

    So Starby, I'll do my best to bring a smile to everyone's face, just like you always did for me.

    I could be so sad, so down, but she'd lift me up, every time. She never let me down, and I'll do my best to not let her down either.

    I know that she would have an opinion on that one... :) And it would probably cover at least 20 pages.

    OMG! I had to wait a few minutes to type so I could see through the tears. I can't believe it, I knew that she was going in for surgery, I just didn't know... OMG.

    ALWAYS be remembered, we miss you Starbs.
