Over the years of her posting on MSE and TGT, Fifi always came across as a very genuine and caring person. There was a gracious manner inherent to her posts which were often written to offer very helpful advice to others. It speaks volumes that in a largely 'faceless' environment such as these boards, she remained so affable and benevolent over such a period. When the GIOL charity page was expiring, she was the one who set up the thread to find a charity to support in 2010. Even for those like me who did not know her in real life, I think it was easy to sense she was a sweet person and it always appeared that there was a palpable sense of respect towards her from other forum users.
I extend my condolences to her family and friends at this terribly sad time.
Rest in peace, Fifi.
