RIP CS
Submitted by JtC on Thu, 08/26/2021 - 12:23pmI've been watching for an obituary and could not find one but I did find this. I'm almost positive this is CS in AZ (Lauren). She was a lovely and brave lady. Her last post here was on July 22.

RIP old friend, and if by some fortunate chance you are still with us I sincerely apologize for posting this.
ek has passed
Submitted by JtC on Wed, 11/04/2020 - 8:11pmIt saddens me to announce the news of ek hornbeck's passing. I received an email today from his good friend and colleague, TMC aka TheMomCat. Here are her words:
It is with the deepest sorrow to tell you that ek hornbeck passed from this world at 6:05 AM ET. He was not just a fellow blogger but a kind and close friend. He comforted those in pain and inflicted pain on the comfortable. I cannot tell you how much he will be missed by his family, friends and, especially, by me.
Blessed Be, TMC
I've known ek as a blogger since 2009 when I joined Docudharma, back in the days when buhdydharma was still blogging. After buhdy went "off to the mountain", ek and TMC took the reigns and have continued Docudharma to this day. Around the same time ek started his own blog, The Stars Hollow Gazette. ek was a prolific writer to the end.
The blogosphere wont be the same without ek hornbeck.
RIP, ek.

Mercedes Successful
Submitted by Robyn on Fri, 05/20/2016 - 2:55pmThe body of a 32-year-old transgender woman was found dead in a Polk County, FL parking lot last Sunday night. Mercedes Successful had been shot to death.
Ms. Successful was active in the drag and pageant communities in Haines City, FL and had represented her native country of Jamaica in the 2014 Gay Carribbean USA pageant.
Of course local media deadnamed and misgendered Ms. Successful, who had begun transition 6 weeks before being murdered.
BlueEyedAce2 from dkos is gone
Submitted by TracieLynn on Thu, 03/31/2016 - 4:24pmSaw the diary over at dkos. Wanted to make sure this community knew. While his photography touched me, as I'm sure it did us all, if there was someone who knew him better that would like to create an essay here, I'd happily delete this one.
RIP BluedEyedAce2
