One of my long time, long distance, never met in person, cyber friends has suddenly passed in the night. She has a young daughter and her son’s wedding is in a few weeks. She had been sick for a while but we were hoping she would get better. Please say a prayer or blessing for this loving family. She was a very special person who touch may lives. Hug the ones you love.

I have cyberfriends like that too, and yes even if you've never met, they can feel so close. Sorry, she passed away. prayers for the family, but for you too.

Tracy, It is amazing how we can become even good friends online. But, we know how upset we would be losing any of our Cuties. I'm so sorry for your loss, and I'm sure you were very special to her too. Wish we could make you feel better. Hugs, Jan

Quite a few years ago I was a member of a great scrapbooking group of ladies who are a lot like this group, very supportive, close knit and very sharing. When we discovered social media (my space, facebook) we kinda drifted in different directions. Some meeting back on the media sites. Being paper crafts things were very easy to mail so we did what was called RAK's Random Acts of Kindness. We would mail people stuff, anything really small or large. I have received Chocolate from France and 37 cent envies stuffed to the weight limit with page elements. I have sent my share of stuff as well. However looking as little faces grow into adult hood on FB is nothing like a site like Cute where you actually talk to people, share those same little faces in pics with stories, and give each other support. Thank you ladies for each and everyone of you who post, lurk, share, and love us all. Sometime cyber friends are just what the soul needs.

Sending prayers for the family. I'm sure she will be at her son's wedding looking upon them.

I will do that. I am sorry also for you having lost a dear friend even though you had never met her. It is amazing how strong of a bond one can have with a cyber friend. Hugs Angie
