RIP LittleDragonErin

[cyre]

Yes, this is true. I was just informed by a close friend that she passed away in a surfing accident about 2 months ago.

I'm in complete shock about it, but wanted to post here about it.

Yes a friend of my call me today about this news. I am complet shock I have always wanted to meet her in person. I have met MoneyBoyJoe before but not her. She was a good friend to me. If none of you knew I when on the game as BlueGenieAce. Friends and Dragon always call me Genie on the game. I just got her myspace page a couble months ago. She will be miss.

Can anyone share her myspace page or any links to stories about her passing? This is a sad example of how losing VMK was such a loss. For those months, so many of us, from across age, race, status and other barriers, became very fond of each other through these games. LittleDragonErin was one of my favs for sure.

I don't know who this is, but a death is always very tragic.

I don't know who is running her Myspace now it could be Monkey Boy Joe. That's the name I know him by I think his real name is Joe I only meet him once. But anyways there is no message on there about her death. But this is from other web site that I got this from that I go to here is what it saids from a close friend of Dragon.


A Tribute to a Pirate and a Friend.

It is with such great sadness that I write this post to announce the loss of a good friend of mine, and one of the original members of Destinys Hand. My dear friend Orochi. She passed away a couple months ago from a surfing accident. I am sure that she was doing something that she loved passionately.

But that is the thing with Little Dragon Erin/Orochi everything she did in her short life she did with passion and a drive that I have never seen before in any person. She not only raised the bar for herself she raised it for everyone that she knew. I always considered myself lucky to know her.

She became a legend on VMK, there was not many people that did not know of her name on the game. Her high scores were always what all the VMK'r aspired to reach, and she helped many a player along the way, touching the lives of many in that Virtual Magic Kingdom. LDE was a rockstar for sure.

When POTCO began there was a handful of us that stayed together from VMK to form Destiny's Hand, in fact Orochi gave us our name. And gave us our logo. It was a perfect name for us. And now even more poignant. Destiny's Hand has taken away my friend Erin.

The world has turned into a funny place, where we are all finding friendships through virtual resources. Online games, Forums, etc, etc. And there are many of us that have never laid eyes on each other, much the same as I had never met Erin in real life.

But even though we never get that opportunity it does not lesson the fact that there are feelings of true friendship that bond us all as real friends. I love my virtual friends as much as any that I have here in my real world. And it is that bond that now makes me sit here crying over my loss. The loss of a young lady that at times I felt like she was my little sister, and her problems were mine, her triumphs were my joy. When she moved away, she never got to know how much I was going to miss her. But her opportunity to go and do something so wonderful I was just so happy for her. I never got to tell her goodbye. And now here I am saying goodbye for a last time.

So Erin, my little pirate sister. I love you. Aloha sweet pirate. Thank you for sailing with me for the short time we were allowed.

That's terrible news. I cannot say I knew her personally, apart from seeing her name here and there, but horrible to hear....I am sure she was a good person, and sorry to hear of the loss for her friends and family. Bad, bad stuff.

I posted this in the main forum, but thought it would fit here too.

Its my understanding that yes, Joe is accessing her accts. in order to help get the message out.

A sad and tragic loss to our community. Peace be with her family.
