Goodbyes Are Not Forever

Well gang, I've got some incredibly sad news.  A very dear friend has passed away, and she is one that I hope you all remember.  Heather Emeraldflame has passed.  While she hasn't been seen publicly for quite some time, she has been lurking in the Spiral and working on a couple of her alts, as Heather E. and her life on another account Alric D. had already finished Celestia.  Heather hasn't been well for quite some time, and her passing means that she at least will not be in pain any longer.  I am taking comfort that she's able to soar around on her dragon somewhere in the skies above Wizard City and beyond. 

As a tribute to Heather, I will not be removing her from my friend's list, and I ask that you do the same.  Also, please remember her as the inspiring Diviner who, along with Fallon, introduced us all to the wonders of the storm school on Ravenwood Radio.

If you have anything you would like to say to Heather's family, please comment on this post and I'll make sure they get it.  Thank you for always being here.

Goodbye, Heather.  I'm sure we'll meet again someday beyond the veil, just as Harry and Sirius will.

Your [Saddened] Friend Always,
John Lifeglen

  2. If I could light my wand in tribute to her memory I would. She was a really remarkable player and I'm so glad to have known her for what little time I did. We will miss her.

  13. Honestly, this made me get all teary, and I had to wait and think of something to say that would do Heather as much justice as she deserves.

    Goodbye to an amazing wizard and wonderful person all-around.

    You know someone will be missed when practically the whole online community is mourning.

    Heather will definitely be in all of our minds and hearts.

  16. I remember talking with you a bit Heather- you were really nice. I remember we were in Kevin Battleblood's Mistblood comic together. I still can't believe you've actually passed away...
    Well, I hope you're in a better place. Rest in peace, Heather Emeraldflame.
