a tremendous presence on this section of the internet

She truly was. *love*

[red_eft]

Oh my god. I didn't know her personally, but I admired her a lot. My heart goes out to you and everyone who knew and loved her.

[existence]

As always, it's a saddening thing to hear. My sympathies and best wishes for her loved ones right now.

[nanila]

Oh, I'm so sorry to read this. I loved discovering this community and I'm glad it's part of her legacy.

[saunteringfiend]

I'm so sorry to read that.

[zillah975]

Oh my god. I am so, so sorry. That's terrible news. My thoughts and prayers are with you and with everyone who loved her.

[loligo]

I didn't know her personally, but I saw her in discussions everywhere, and had so much respect for her. She was amazing. When I would expand a thread and see one of her icons waiting there, it always made me smile. My deepest sympathies to her loved ones.

[watersword]

Well, fuck. Please pass on my sympathies to her loved ones, if you are in touch with them. I'll light a candle for her today.

[rhivolution]

This is just to say that...I didn't know skywardprodigal personally, but I've seen her work in action and via others in my circle, and she did brilliant things. She'll truly be missed indeed.

[crantz]

She was amazing. I'm the person who hosts her webspace, where her pictures have been posted from. I'll be leaving it as it is, so her pictures and the stuff she collected isn't lost, because she loved it so much.

[maribella008.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. For that, and for your work in preserving it.

[tielan]

If you ever need financial assistance in supporting it, let me know.

[crantz]

Thank you for the offer! But it'll be okay.

[rosefox]

Oh, what a loss. I'm so sorry.

[bana05]

unreal.

[chiraljhae]

So deeply saddened to hear this. Just...wow. All my love to her, her fam, and her loved ones, and may she rest in peace.

[snacky]

She always had the most beautiful pictures.

I didn't know her personally, but she was such a big presence in this online community, and she will be missed. My heart goes out to those who loved her.

[minxy]

I hope you'll continue the daily blog postings.

I'll miss Sky.

[brownbetty]

Oh my god, I ran into her downtown maybe ten days ago, and then I had to leave for an appointment. I can hardly believe this. It feels unreal. I don't want to believe she's not going to be here anymore.

[forthwritten]

I'm so sorry to hear this. I didn't know her, but she was such a presence and I always enjoyed reading her comments. My condolences to those she loved and who loved her.

[vito_excalibur]

[green]

I'm so sorry.

[eggcrack]

I'm so sorry that she's gone.

[quivo]

I am so sorry to hear this.

[gavagai]

What a tragedy. I'm so sorry for your loss.

[happydork]

I'm so sorry.

[amadi]

My sympathies to you the_future_modernes and to all who mourn more deeply than I. I only knew skywardprodigal from comments and icons and not personally, and yet I am sure that the loss of her voice will have a deep, rippling impact across this corner of the world. May she rest in beauty and peace.

[al_zorra]

I just learned of this sad event. I met her here on DW via our common concern for and love of Haiti and her people.

The world is a little less. Heaven is a little more.

Love, C.

[sinensis]

I am so sorry.

[minoanmiss]

Thank you for letting us know.

She will indeed be terribly missed.

[timeasmymeasure]

She was lovely, and she did so much.
I'm sorry not to have gotten a chance to know her.

[shati]

I'm very sorry to hear this.

[vi]

I'm so sorry. She is someone whose posts I read and admired from afar, and her voice and presence will be missed.

[surpassingly]

I am so sorry. I did not know her very well, but deeply admired the beauty and the light she brought to everything she touched.

[badgerbag]

I'll miss her and her posts very much. She was fierce and beautiful and a sustaining power to others.

[silverthorne]

I...just now found out about this. This world just got a lot darker a lot faster.

I'm Anne, if that helps identify me.

Please give her family my condolences...if you go to the funeral, please leave a rose for her from me.

[maribella008.livejournal.com]

I ... just found out about this too.
I'm so very sorry.

[bougiebohemian]

I'll miss her too...Very much. She was so...man. Brilliant. I feel for her family as well, especially the parents. I can't imagine how they're feeling at this moment.

[ravenelvenlady]

Sky you will be missed. Sorely. Thanks for everything my sister. ♥

[chr0me]

She was wonderful. Thank you for letting us know.
