Thank you Laura for your thoughtfulness in posting this difficult message. And please accept my deepest condolences to you and your family. I discovered this site only this year but have found much help here and your mum's posts have been some that i have found inspirational. She will be sadly missed. Much love.

I'm so sorry for your loss, I'm so glad you were able to tell us about what happened. BDG will be sorely missed here. I do remember her well from the old board and here. I do remember her list that she posted that C-Lion reposted. I use some of those tips. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family as you live life without her. thank you again for letting us know.

- Some of the things I admired about BDG: - She wasn't afraid to speak her mind
- She found ways of cleaning, despite having several physical challenges
- She was very kind
I know I'll think of more ..... -

Thank you for sharing this with us. My deepest sympathy. This is such sad news, I hardly know what words to say, other than that people live on in the lives others whom they touched, and BDG certainly touched so many lives here and helped so many people. We will always remember our SOS sister. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Thank you, Laura, for letting us know why BDG dropped out of sight. She was a valued member of SOS and the earlier board. I miss her kindness and her excellent advice for working despite disabilities. My sympathies to you and your family.

I was much saddened to hear of her passing but there's not a time when I fall back on the BDG housekeeping method that I do not smile, thinking of her fondly and with appreciation. I'm so glad we got to know her on these boards.

I heard from Ramatama. She's away and unable to come to the forums, but she heard about BDG via email in our community. Ramatama asked me to convey a message ... Ramatama told me to "send condolences to BDG's family from Ramatama".
Ramatama to say that she'd always liked what BDG had to say. Ramatama liked the way BDG's mind worked.

Dear Laura, I'm so sorry to hear that your mother passed away. She left a lasting impression on many of us with her kind words and wonderful advice. I had just been thinking of her two days ago when I was using her BDG method of housecleaning. I was thinking about when she taught us all that method and how good it feels when I attain that level of cleaning. Thank you so much for sharing. Sometimes people go away and we never know if they are ok or not. We all have an angel watching over us now ~Lori

Laura, although I am a brand newbie, not even 24 hours old, your mother sounded like a great woman, someone who really has helped so many. My sincerest sympathies to you and your family.
Peace to you.
Pam
