I realized that maybe I should post here about the recent loss our faire family has had. Some of you might have known her but not heard the news yet. We have tried to post on the IWG and Facebook and LJ but didn't think of posting here until now.
Last Thursday evening, 12-23-2010, The rennie world lost one of it's most beautiful souls. Allie Sutherland, aka Lori Stipe-Russell passed away. She leaves behind her Husband, Clay Russell, her parents and her sister Tara. She also leaves behind a slew of Faire family and friends, in particular, her very best friend, John Broadfoot. Everyone she connected with, she touched with her spirit and love and heart. She was one of my dearest friends and I will miss her and the light she brought to my life Forever.
I post her signature from IWG to help memorialize her and to help some of you recognize her.

So sorry to hear of your friends passing.
