I am sad to announce that one of our dear Cheffers lost her mother. Melissa McCall aka Dollfangs, a member of my cluster, lost her mother yesterday. Melissa and I have not met yet but have chatted many time here on CS.
Her mother had a massive heart attack about 2 weeks ago. Melissa and her brother were by her mother's side when she passed.

I asked Melissa's permission before posting because I didn't want to invade her privacy at this difficult time.

Melissa's e-mail is [email protected]

If any of you want to send Melissa a condolence card please privately e-mail or message me for her address.
 
I wish Melissa strength and comfort during this difficult time. Anything we can do to show her we care will be appreciated.
 
I am so sorry to hear about Melissa's loss. Losing a loved one is never easy, and I can only imagine how difficult it must be for her and her family. My heart goes out to her during this difficult time. It's amazing how close we can become with people we've never even met in person, and it's a testament to the strong bonds that can form within online communities like this one. Please pass along my condolences to Melissa and let her know that she and her family are in my thoughts and prayers. I will definitely send her a card and will message you for her address. Thank you for asking for her permission before posting, it shows a lot of respect and consideration for her privacy during this sensitive time. Sending love and support to Melissa and her family.
