Comment from Wendy G
I am relatively new to FS, having joined in late 2020, so I didn't know her, but she does sound like a wonderful writer, and I plan to look at her works as it seems she was extremely talented. Thank you for sharing a beautiful tribute to her, and I pass on my sympathy to you at the loss of a very dear friend, and also to her famly. Thank you for sharing, and making her more widely known to us.

Hi Wendy.
Thank you for reading my posted tribute. We were 1000 miles apart, but felt like we were neighbors.
I appreciate your time and your kind words.

Thank you so much for writing this. I had seen Tony's note, but I didn't know Karyn, so of course didn't react. I must try to get to know more people here. But I wanted to thank you for overcoming your sadness to write with sincerity and humour and showing me it can be done. I think you may have pulled me out of the sadness I have been wallowing in for too long, that will allow me to face my own, distinct, grief properly starting tomorrow. kay

Kay, I?m not quite sure what to say other than that I?m glad by me taking the time to pay tribute to Karyn had helped you in some positive way. You shouldn?t have to face sorrow or grief alone. If you ever need someone to rant to or need a shoulder, you can always private message me. I?m sure I won?t have the answers but it?s better not to keep it bottled in!

This is a lovely tribute to your FanStory friend. I have known some terrific writers on here who suddenly disappear from the site and never return. I often wonder what became of them or if they just left.

I was away for about five years before I returned 4 months ago and there are a number of writers missing. I can only hope they are doing well or in a better place.
Thank you for reading and sharing.

Comment from lyenochka
Thank you for this beautiful tribute to Karyn. I thought you were relatively new to Fanstory because I started in 2016 and that's when you left. I vaguely recall having a few interchanges with Karyn but then I thought she disappeared or perhaps reviewed less and in circles where I didn't delve so I never really got to know her. I'm so glad that you did. Now I feel I know her a little better because of this.

Comment from juliaSjames
This heartfelt tribute touched me. I knew of Karyn. But our paths never really crossed. Nevertheless, I mourn her passing as a talented Fanstorian stalwart because, to some extent, all of us on this site are family. May her soul rest in eternal peace.
Thanks for sharing.
Blessings, Julia

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
My sincere condolences, John, on the loss of your friend.
I learned so much about Karyn from reading this. I knew
only her name on FS, which I recognized immediately from
TFawcus' announcement. I'm thrilled you and she had that
friendship bond because of FS. Your words were straight
from your heart.
Thanks for sharing and caring, Jan

This really was sad news to hear. I didn't know her on a personal level but I knew her through her writing. She was immensely talented and very helpful in her reviews. This was a nice story of what she meant to you. I am sorry for her family's loss, your loss and Fanstory's loss. Beautifully written. Gretchen
