Thank you! She was one of a kind. Feel free to share the obituary to the whole board if you wish, I just didn’t know how to do it.

age 69 is far too soon but it’s clear she led a full and fun life filled with joy. She will be missed not only by those who knew her personally but also, as you can see here, by so many who did not

That is a life well lived

Please link her Obit into original post - per family. We will hit the mods if necessary. Thank you all.

The family had no idea the impact she made here. It’s appreciated.

Gris Gris was always classy and helpful. Reading her obituary shows what a full life she led! If I am not mistaken, she took on the task of moderating the FDB Challenges. She was always ready to help a lost chef. The world has lost a good one, but heaven has gained a darn good cook!

May God be with her family & the FDB TD family, as we mourn her passing and celebrate her life.

Sorry for your loss. She was a great addition to the Food & Drink board for almost 20 years. She will be missed by many here on TD.

Wow. Gris Gris had a very full life and accomplished so much. Thank you for sharing her obit. I’m still shaken up by her passing.

Any way the f&d board can donate jointly to plant a tree for her? It’s only $40. LINK

May she rest in peace and may God bring comfort to her grieving loved ones.

I enjoyed her cooking adventures on the food board.

She always called you "Mr. Balls." And I always thought that was hilarious. When conversations became heated, she was always diplomatic and agreeable.. What a lady. She was a good sport. And she'll be missed on this board. She added something very special.
