Oh gosh, I’m sorry to hear that. She was always a classy, quality poster. Sending love and light to her friends and family.

Damn. I really didn’t interact with her but she was one the voices on the FDB I respected the most.

Not to be super depressing but there has been plenty of talk of how the bulk of the membership was obtained from 2005-2015. It’s sad to think we see it go the same as RL where the mainstays all start to get older and pass on.

Thanks for letting us know. She was one of my favorite posters, always solid on cooking and restaurant issues.

My first post here was a request for a restaurant recipe, and she contacted the restaurant and got it for me.

RIP Gris Gris.

Damn, she posted a lot.

Not to make light of it, but Oweo was the last person to post to her.

Condolences to her family.

Wait, was the condolences to her family was for her passing or was it for TD being important to her and having Oweo as her last contact to it?

Haha, both I guess. Someone needs to go reply to her so that Oweo won't be her last reply!

Her recent posts are full of affectionately referring to Latoya as “Teedy” as a 69 year old woman. I love this place

He has no idea what it means, hence the stupid post. She was a great poster on the F&D board.
