Lexi,

Like IWM, I also thank you for sharing with us. God bless you. I always liked the words of my parent's minister at my father's funeral ... "Death is like a comma in the sentence of life."

I personally take comfort thinking that in only a cosmic blink of the eye, we might all be reunited with friends and loved ones. I hope you find that thought comforting as well. No doubt Skip is looking down and smiling knowing full well that he was truly loved.

I am surprised and saddened to hear of Skip's passing. I did not know him very well, but he seemed to be such a kind and happy soul. My heartfelt condolences to his friends and family.

It's been a week now.....I don't feel any better and I am really trying. I miss him more than I thought I ever could miss anyone. The wonderful things he said to me run thru my head constantly. I see him everywhere--fortunately we only shared fun times.....

I am trying so hard tho to give others what he gave me.......

I hope all of you are doing okay and I am right here if any of you ever want to talk.

IMW, the more you loved somebody, the longer it takes to get thru the grieving process...but it's ok, time will heal...

For Skip.
Broken ~ Seether

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph; I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

‘Cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel light when you’re gone away

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There’s so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

‘Cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

STO was not a friend, but he was a welcome and cherished fellow traveller.

He is the second high profile Pixie I have said goodbye to and do not look forward

to the third.

Pixies is a place of life and joy and hope, and this is, in part, their legacy.

i've got to stop working so much. skip was among the first to give me a big,goofy friendly cheerful welcome when i found pixies, and made me laugh over and over until he left us in the spring (skippy monkey tail...that slayed me). i was confused...since i was new and wasn't aware that he was planning to leave the community. i was sad when he left, because i didn't get to know him better. then he came back, and i was pleased, and confident that i would find time to sit down and log into chat and get giggling from something he said. now i'm kicking myself in the ass for putting it off (cuz i just knew there would always be plenty of time...) and for the fact that i never told him how much he made me smile and how much i appreciated it. skip, man, i'm sorry i put it off and i hope you know what a truly cool, sweet person you are. were. are...yeah...are. lots of people here loved you, and lots of us still do. hope your clearing is bright and beautiful and your crossing into it was painless.

It's funny you should say that dicksbro, because my very first coherent thought after I read the news about Skip was that for some reason he now felt closer to me than ever before. Previously there had been an ocean between us, and now he's everywhere that I am, around all of us, all of the time.

And stupidly, whenever I catch myself doing something unladylike when no one else is watching (yes women do need to pick their noses and pass wind sometimes too) I can't help but thinking 'OMG Skip will see me doing this'!

Ohhhhhhhhhhh....heavens to mergatroid Loulabelle! As if I'm not paranoid enough...now I have to worry if skip is laughing at my bodily functions!!!!!

One thing I can rest assured by...skip now believes me when I say..."when woman are alone...we can fly!" Seems men think I'm making that up. How else can we do so much from sun to sun and then some...whilst men can only do the sun to sun thing and then...poof...they are done?!

*shrug*
