I just learned on Facebook that Toni Savage passed away. For those who are
new players, Toni was a "regular" here for many years. Very sad....

It was posted by family. I knew things weren't good for a while. Toni had
breast cancer and eventually brain cancer and was very open about it.

Extremely sad news indeed, she was a fixture on CompuServe, and a nice
person. She will be sorely missed.

Toni was creative and funny and a bedrock of the early days. She was one a
very few who could say, "I played Dixonary before it was called Dixonary."

I am saddened to learn of her passing.

That is sad news indeed. If you are in touch with her family, please
convey my condolences.

Every time this kind of thing happens I think to myself that I should
have a list of online friends to be notified of my own demise, when it
happens. I suppose my husband might think to look at my computer, but
maybe not.

This is what I posted. I hope it meets with your approval. I didn't "name names," but I did use comments that were posted:

Toni was a long-standing player of Dixonary, an online word game that began on the CompuServe Tapcis forum 4 July 1989. She is remembered as "creative and funny and a bedrock of the early days. She was one a very few who could say, 'I played Dixonary before it was called Dixonary.' Those of us who currently participate wish to convey our sadness and extend our condolences to Toni's family. She will be sorely missed.

P.S. I just added that Dixonary is now played in a Google group and attached the link. Hope that's okay! I didn't want to leave just the CompuServe info since we're not there anymore!

Thank you, Judy. That reads very nicely and hits the right notes, though I'm a
bit puzzled by the quote that begins at "creative" and never quite ends.
