I got an email...I'm in shock....
I can hardly believe it, and wonder if an account got hacked?
Her husband emailed me today. I had emailed her on Friday, she replied Saturday. I didn't get the chance to follow up.
Her facebook has posts from people who know her IRL posted yesterday indicating that she had passed.
This is a really sick joke if not true.
She was just posting here a few days ago

Yes, horrible news if true. Turtledove was hard working, resourceful, intelligent and basically a good human being. I never cease to marvel how she kept her composure amidst a bunch of hairy ass, crude internet barbarians, but never lost her femininity. I am sad she is not able to reap the rewards of her industriousness with her husband and poor children.
Very depressing, but, like life, unpredictable.
I would like some follow up i.e. was she suffering from an undisclosed chronic illness, etc.

Very insightful, positive, and a great contributor to this site. She just posted here very recently.
I hope this is not true.

I just heard some extremely sad news that turtledove passed away recently, quite possibly over weekend. Had been in touch with her regarding a family issue and I got an email from her husband today indicating that she had passed away before I had a chance to reply . I am not privy to any other details.
Was very thoughtful of her husband to contact me, given his level of grief and work responsibilities in light of the bad news. She was a kind generous person who asked her husband to reach out to me on deathbed to meet up and discuss our case with us.
Personally, I'm in shock, as it seems to have happened this past Saturday or Sunday.
