A DUer died last night
A DUer died last night. She was a beautiful soul--kind and warm-hearted, lively and energetic and funny. Her DU name was JanusAscending.
You might not have come across her in the more populated parts of DU; she didn't spend a whole lot of time in GD and GDP. But those of us who interacted with her on a daily basis in the smaller groups loved her dearly, even though we never met face to face.
JA had health problems, major and minor, but she never EVER let them get her down. She never complained about them. Instead, she loved to talk about the great loves in her life--her pets, especially her dog, Flurry, that she had to give away when her health worsened, and most of all, her children and her grandson, whom she loved almost more than she could express.
JA's death was rather unexpected, and the DU friends she was closest to are in shock this morning. But we send her spirit light and love, and more to her family who will miss her very much. We will miss her very much as well.
And this got me thinking...all those people in the computer screen that you spar with have lives, and loves, and families just like you. What if we were all nice to our fellow DUers, if only for a day? Sure, lots of people piss you off. Sure, it seems like those "others" are hardly human sometimes, what with the vitriolic, violent poo-flinging that goes on around here. And yet...how about cutting 'em some slack today? It wouldn't hurt, would it? Just for one isolated, solitary day? So give it a try--in JanusAscending's memory, okay? Spread some love for a lovely bright soul who is no longer with us. And think of JanusAscending when you do
May she RIP and Prayers for the family.
See how easy that was DUmmies? NO grave dancing will take place at CC.

Rest in peace, and Godspeed, JanusAscending.

Any bets on how long the first "The Repukes are grave-dancing!" post will take? ::) :stoner: :whatever: :censored:

I'm a DU'er just visiting and I wanted to say a heartfelt "thank you" for the decency and compassion shown in this thread. You are right, grave dancing is never classy or right. I speak out against it when I see it.
I guess I should go away now.

Don't go. Stick around and chat. Welcome to CC.

Stay a bit and debate if you wish. Unlike DU you are free to say what you think here.
and a welcome bitchslap.

Not at all. You are welcome anytime.
And a heartfelt RIP and prayers to the family in their time of need.

May the family of JanusAscending find the strength to see them through this. Anyone who held their Dog is such high esteem is alright in my book.

You are welcome, and there isn't any need for you to go away.

That's sad, God Bless her and condolences to her family, friends and online friends.
-
Sorry to hear of it; I was not familiar with her, but best wishes to her friends and family, may she rest in peace.
:(

You've got the guts to come over here. I, and quite a few others here, respect that. We may not agree on many (if any) things, but we can at least be civil to each other.
BTW, Dutch bitchslaps everybody.

Bitchslaps are God's way of saying "Why, Hello! What a Grand Morning it is."

RIP prayers go out to the family

Don't feel you have to go away! If you don't want to jump into the political fray there are forums for hobbies, cooking, humor, and other things and discussions of news stories that have nothing to do with politics.

I also don't recognize the name but may she rest in peace and may her family find peace in this sad time.
-
Sorry when anyone dies, but enough's enough.

Heartfelt condolences to the family of JanusAscending. I don't believe I ever saw her posts, but she sounds like a nice lady. I hope her family and friends find peace as they say their goodbyes.
-
I've never heard of the handle and considering what this forum is for that's not a bad thing at all. RIP JA and prayers sent.
-
Thank you all so much for the warm welcome! That was really nice of you.
I want to apologize, too. I get caught up in the "my team first" and I've written some things I feel bad about now that I realize you guys have read them.
I think we do have at least one thing in common. I believe you love this country. I believe the DU'ers love this country, in spite of endless conversations about how to tinker with things to try to make things better. I love this country.
Thank you again for the invitation to stay, but I'd better not because I already get bitch-slapped all the time over at DU, and I think my head would explode if I had to take it from two message boards at the same time! :cheersmate:
-
I've seen a few of her posts in some of the minor forums. She seemed to have a loving soul. How sad for her loved ones.
May she have painless peace now and be surrounded by the love of God.

sorry to hear about your friend. I wish you would stick around. You could post in the non political threads.

My thoughts, prayers and most sincere condolences go out to her family and loved ones. Two and 4 footed.

Don't go away. We have plenty of room for dissenting opinions.

Got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning, did we? :tongue:
-
BTW... may the family and friends find comfort in their time of loss.

Hard thing to go through. I was "I I" that close to going through it with my old man, and about 5 years ago, I lost a dear friend. Hurts veryi bad.
R.I.P to JA, and my most heartfelt thoughts, and prayers to family, and friends of hers.
-
I read a few of her posts in the past. She was one of the more "reasonable" DUmmies at DU.
Prayers to the family in their time of loss.
