Thanks! I love when real life gives me great prompts like this!

Oh, this is so sweet. What a wonderful way to remember Patricia Kutteles. Thank you!

[goddess47]

I couldn't let her passing go by unnoticed! Especially in SGA fandom!

Thanks!

Thank you for writing and posting this tribute. And, now, I'm crying again. [It's been that kind of a week, with a personal death, on top of the disaster south of the border.]

I couldn't believe the horror of the details concerning the murder of her son. Another black mark on society and the military mindset.

Awww... sweetie...

Yes, for all the hope we have about the military, they are a microcosm of all humans and have (unfortunately) more than their share of bad people... when good people encounter them, it's not always a happy ending.

Oh...

Oh man, that just breaks my heart. I love this! Poor John...

I like that you touch on how much her efforts meant for people like John, and I like that Rodney is supportive and suggests a memorial tea. I've never heard of her, and I'm so sad about what she's been through.

This was a lovely tribute :)

[goddess47]

I have to admit never hearing of her before this, but something in the obituary reached out to me and I couldn't let it go by unmentioned...

Thank you!
