Title: Another Brokie has passed away
Post by: CellarDweller on April 12, 2016, 01:11:57 pm

Hiya everyone.

I don't have any details, but Karen McBride's Facebook page is full of good-bye messages, indicating she has died.

She hasn't be active in the "Brokieverse" in a while, but I believe she was an avid Slash Fan.  Her screen name was T_wistful Heart, and we had the opportunity to meet her in Colorado.

Sad to hear.  I'm in that photo, so I'm sure I met her in Estes Park.

Looks like she only posted here on the fanfic pages, last in 2010.

According to what was posted on her FB page, she passed away yesterday from a pulmonary embolism in her lung.

What sad news. I remember her being a slasher, but didn't know her. My condolences to her friends and family.

I'm glad I was able to find a few pics of her.  She didn't attend a lot of the gatherings.
