UPDATE:

Just got the Bad News - she died about 25 minutes ago.
One of the oother players in the group had just been at her place and called me.

Now I've been asked to contact people that her husband doesn't have info for.

Kind of messed up right now.

Aw, damn. Sorry for your loss, Ed.

Hold on to the memories of the times you shared. They will far outlast this present grief.

I know when my dad died it helped to focus on being there for other people. It kind of took me out of my own grief.

Sorry to hear of your loss, Koltar.

I'm sorry for your loss. It must be very difficult to lose a close friend.

My condolances on the loss of your friend.

Got through the funeral this morning without tearing up.
likely will hit me wtears at midnight...

The Service or Memorial part had bits of comedy to it because my friend had a decent sense of humor and touched upon or interacted with a lot of sub cultures locally. MENSA, the Pagan and Wiccan crowd, Jewish spirtuality scholars, and military veterans too....and oh yeah gamers and steampunks.

Many people after the memorial and sort of during the burial told me that she often said she enjoyed our game sessions the best (Yep, she was in other game groups sometimes)

Afterwards at the wake (?) reception? - All the other players of the group were talking like they wanted to continue the campaign if possible - just a matter of scheduling and logistics. The thought of rotating who hosted' the game sessions was discussed.

Lots of hugs happened.

Guess you could say during sad events a bit of a Happy Ending happened...
