Oh no, I hadn't seen that on FB yet
I had been planning to meet up with her when I went to LA, but every time I went, I never seemed to have any spare time to be able to catch up.

Rest in Peace Hope, you will be sorely missed by a lot of friends around the world.

At the kitty's beck and call
Oh my goodness - I am speechless
When I saw the headline on the RSS feed, I was expecting this to be one of those cruel hoaxes that you sometimes hear of on networking sites - then I saw that Hope's niece had confirmed it.

This is such a shock. RIP Hope
I will miss your presence on the site - you were a truly lovely person to have around.


The kitties must miss her terribly - I hope that they find a loving home.

Rest in peace, Hope, reunited with your beloved Snoopy, , who was certainly waiting for you on the other side.

Hope was a very gifted artist who gave generously of her time and talents, and will be sorely missed here at TCS. Condolences to her loved ones from Jamie Cat and me.

I'm so shocked to read this. I was just thinking about her the other day, wondering why we haven't seen her around much lately and hoping that all was well. I'm very, very sad that she has passed away, and at such a young age.
My thoughts go out to her family. I'm relieved to know that her beloved kitties have been taken in to good homes. That would have meant the world to her.

Fighting for ferals in NW NJ!
Hope, you were so beautiful and talented, one of the sweetest souls. You left us too soon, though with your strong faith, I'm comforted in knowing that now you are free, cradled in the palm of God's hand.


Yes, Hope will be a wonderful caretaker and playmate for our RB animals.

Did God need another angel?
Or someone He knew that would care?
Someone who always thought of others
And when needed… was always there.

Did God need another angel?
Or someone to be more helpful in Heaven above?
Even though you were treasured here on Earth
I guess He noticed your kindness and your love.

Did God need another angel?
Or someone He knew was worthwhile?
Someone to share in His spiritual inspirations
And someone with an awesome smile!

I guess God watched you from Heaven
And choose someone He knew was special
Now I'm no longer saddened because in the end
God DID need another angel; …he also has a wonderful friend.

I will miss you Hope. I hope you are free, whole and happy now.

How sad. Many prayers are being sent to Hope's family. Heaven has another angel. God Bless you Hope. May you Rest in Peace.

This goes to show you never know. You have to be ready and I hope you have a relationship with Christ.

Oh no - this is so sad! RIP Hope. She was such a kind, loving lady - I'm glad the cats are being cared for and I'm not sure if she still had Strutter (her dog).

Her hobbies were completely different - from my little ponies, web design, cats (mainly bengals, siamese and persian) and of course Paul.


I will missing seeing her posts.

When I saw the title to this thread I thought it must be a mistake, that one of her kitties had passed away. Sending prayers for her family. What a sad time for them.
