Rose Sisti / Roses are Read

 Rose passed away some time in September 2015. She wrote Roses are Read.
I became aware of her death only today, nearly 9 years after the event. 

I remember her as a lovely friend and bubbly personality. 

May she rest in peace.

Elizabeth Sims / Godolallie

Three years after her death, I am deeply saddened to report the death of Elizabeth Sims, known to us in J-land as godolallie. She was a gifted photographer and writer. 

 Liz had very serious physical impairments, brought on as a result of being involved in a bad car crash. These are described in perhaps disturbing details on her blog Visual Counterpoint. Her senses always worked in overtime; reading and writing were a challenge to her. 

She moved to Evie in Orkney, opposite the islands of Eynhallow and Rousay, where she found sanctuary in peace and quiet. My last contact with her was in 2015. Liz was happy to reach out to me, and to others in J-land. I believe most of us lost touch with her when we were booted off AOL in 2008.
