She is with the stars now ...

Goodbye, Vonda. I hope those who weren't able to share with you what you or your work meant to them, will now share those thoughts with others.

I am so sorry to hear this. May she rest in peace and watch over all of us especially all the others she inspired.

It was a great honor to be able to care for Vonda and provide support for Jane and Kate during Vonda's last days. Vonda's kindness to me as a new Seattleite decades ago will not be forgotten; I am grateful to have been able to give back just a little bit.

So glad I got to sit with her on Saturday. She was still laughing at my bad jokes. Goodbye, my friend. We will meet again.

I was very lucky to know her, even a little. Many people are lucky to know her through her books and her courage and level-headedness to the last has ensured there will be one more.

Heartbreaking that this has happened; a relief that there was minimal pain. She will be greatly missed.

Sorrow.

Aloha, Vonda.

Thank you Jeanne and all of the posse for all that you did for her, and for keeping her friends in the loop.

Ave atque vale, Vonda.

All honor to her memory. Wishing peace and comfort to those who mourn her.

Thank you for keeping us updated, Jeanne.
