Sorry to hear this. I have only been on the forum for about 2 1/2 years, but remember her voice of reason on many threads.

So sad to hear this, she was a regular on the forum and many of us have benefited in some way from her contributions. R.I.P. 49er.

I still find this whole forum/board thing a little odd in how much I care about people I've never met face-to-face. I understand the advantages of anonymity and privacy. But there are people on this forum who have died that I would have driven more than a day's drive away to attend their funeral, had I known about it in time.
I feel the same way. i still miss my buddy Will (Sir NoddinOff) – even though I never met him.

I'm sorry to hear about Viv. RIP 49er.

This is sad news. 49er was a helpful fellow human being. May she rest in peace and rise in Glory. God bless you, Vivian.

I still don't know who I am going to "fight" with when baseball season gets here. That was such an daily part of our friendship.

Sad news indeed. I had several PM exchanges with 49er over the years, all of them cheerful and pleasant even though they often revolved around our respective health issues. She was, by her example, a civilizing influence on contentious topics, and like so many others here I will miss her presence.
