Hope was so kind to me. I was a newbie here and she helped me with the first signature I had. I was so dumb and she was so kind. Hope you have left a legacy behind of many who love you and remember you for being such a kind person. Rest in peace. Give Max and Speedboat a hug for me.

I have heard a lot about Hope since joining TCS and she seemed like an amazing lady, seein her picture made it all seem so real, such a sad loss and so young, so I really, really pray that there is an afterlife and she is safe and well.
Butzie, well this is so sad and I really hope that her animals are all ok, we here on TCS are such great people and we care so much and its fantastic what people do on here for other members, you are all very special people.xxx

Wow I cannot believe its a year. She was so good with computer designs and her love for Paul Stanley was always present.
Tomorrow she can have a new kitty to keep her company sad as it may be.
Hope I hope you are enjoying all our RB kitties for us.

I always felt a special kinship with Hope. First, well, we shared the same first name (I don't meet many "Hope"s) and I love KISS as well, but she had me beat there! lol. To this day, I can not hear a KISS song and not think of her. I was just starting to get to know her when I logged on one night and saw the "RIP" thread. My heart dropped and my first thought was "NO, it's a mistake". I SO regret not rejoining sooner and getting to know her better. I've seen her posts in so many older threads while researching for this or that problem and it is such a shame that this caring women was taken so soon.

How horribly sad - I wasn't on a site sabbatical at the time. This is horrible to hear!

Hope was a dear, sweet lady, greatly missed. Hard to believe it has been 2 years. I was so relieved when I read through the thread and found out that all her furkids had been found homes. I had no internet for several months, so by the time I found out, everything was done, but it still struck very hard It was also very hard to hear abut Butzie. May you both Rest In Peace.

Is not necesary to meet in real life at the person to miss her....


I meet Hope....& I miss to her too...
years ago, when I arrive to TCS my poor english was enrich by the great TCS family help, many members go and come back, she always was loyal to the site, was kind with the new members, and generousity with her art....she was a totally lady in the whole extention of the word....
God decide to call her at his kingdom leave us a deep pain......

As her name is....HOPE, we should to have the HOPE of she´s keeping busy to all kittys that are in the Rainbow...


I have the luck to meet her.........now I miss her...painfully because I´m human, but my HOPE is she´s fine and waiting for us ....................someday....



RIP my friend.......TCS is not the same without you,......

Rigel, that was an absolutely lovely post concerning Hope. Makes me wish I'd known her better.
I'm sure Hope and Rosemary are watching over our RB babies.

I am truly sorry to hear this, I have been away for a few years and certainly remember her. I remember when another TCS member passed away, it certainly leaves a shock.

I often think of Hope. She has such a wonderful spirit and strong love for her kitties.
Eveytime I hear a KISS song or a see a "my little pony", I smile and think of her

It really does. I am still connected to Hope through her Facebook page and so I see her name and think of her quite often. And of her fantastic 4 kitties, still hoping they are all safe and happy in their new furever homes.

I am just now seeing this. I have been away from the site for quite some time dealing with a divorce, job loss and now stage 4 breast canSer, which I WILL beat!!!

Hope was such a WONDERFUL woman. I am SOOO saddened by this. I am just sitting here bawling. Life is SO delicate. We forget about our own mortality until we are faced with it. Since being diagnosed 2 months ago, I am so incredibly sensitive to my own mortality and hearing of people SO YOUNG and full of life passing on before me just saddens me SO much.

Oh Hope! I pray that you have found a wonderful, amazing peace. That the afterlife is all that we have faith it will be. I pray that you are there in perfect health having the time of your life with all your family and fur babies that have gone before you.

I will miss making siggies with you! You taught me SO much. I might just have to start making them again for TCS members in your honor.

Thank you for your friendship and for sharing your wonderful spirit. I am SO sorry I am just finding out about this now
You will forever be in my thoughts and prayers now.

Rest my friend. Please give Thunder, Mindy and Max a big pet and kiss for me.

I missed this thread too as I was away in March. I still think of Hope and how sad it is that her life ended so suddenly. She seemed like such a kind-hearted person, and I always wished for better for her. RIP Hope.

Yarra, keep strong! What an awful lot you've had to deal with.

I'm glad I came back and read the newer additions to this thread... Rigel, thank you for your beautiful words about Hope. Sometimes it's so hard to express our deeper feelings, but you have a great gift for it. I think your post is a comfort to all of us who miss her.

I can hardly wait for Christmas, so we can decorate her tree again!

AW Rigel just
. I did not know Hope
(she must have been a wonderful person too), but the love and support of the TCS family (yes, I consider it kinda like that) is just so heartwarming to me
