Speaking of Kef, I really miss the goodness and light that was DU's incomparable Roni, aka NewYawker99. Where ever you are, my friend, you are SORELY missed and SO needed here now.

4. If I could vote for the "Greatest DUer", it would be very close between her and Kef...
|
...actually, I think a tie would be appropriate.

9. They were both so helpful to me when I first joined up.
|
Kephra taught me how to make a post in LBN, leading to a years long addiction to that forum. Roni made sure I felt at home here and showed me the Lounge. Heh, those were good days.
Yeah, they'd have to be a tie. |

10. Someone here mentioned a few weeks ago that she had passed,
|
and of course I couldn't believe it and very upset about it.
But someone else said that wasn't true. Does anyone know for sure? I know she had not been well a few years ago the last time she posted.  |
