Thank you for coming to tell us. We miss her presence here--she was indeed bright and witty, and caring--a bright star on this site.

I"m so sorry for your loss...

Thank you so much Lori, 

Xochi always spoke very highly of you and of the forum in general. She was very loyal to it and it was where she always touched base. She was a real political animal : ).  I know she would have followed election night via Gaga... but that's the day she passed. 

She had brittle bones from birth. But she led a full life. An extraordinary person. Her mind was clear, lively, incredibly bright, and funny. I met her on Big Brother Channel 4. Nither of us had sisters...plenty of brothers...so we called each other sis. She was in and out of hospital the last couple of years. We didn't get to speak to each other  as often as we would have wished. But when she could, we would chat and my heart lifted to hear her full of life. 

But I digress. Gaga, you, the forum members were very important to her. 

 Thank you for letting us know.

I had become used to Xochi's temporary absences over the last couple of years and knew she didn't keep well - but this is still a terrible shock.

She was a clever, witty and friendly lady and will be missed by lots of people on here, including me.

My sincere condolences to you, Xochi's Sis, and to her family and friends.

Thank you Yogi.

I second all that ....she was a lovely , lovely person ...and as a Darnell fan we had lots of fun . My sincerest condolences to you and all her family 

My deepest condolences. Such sad news.

Awwwww very very sad news  

She was such a sweet, happy and lovely person despite all her problems.

We will miss you Xochi. Rest in peace lovely lady  

My sincerest condolences to you and all her family 

Very sad news indeed, I didn't know her very well but always thought she was lovely and I know she's very highly regarded by everyone on here. 

I hope she's shining bright among the stars and that she's now in peace.

She will never be forgotten here and I think the forum was lucky to have her among us  

Sorry to hear such sad news,my condolences to Xochi's family and friends,she will be missed  

I am so very sorry to hear this - I remember Xochi very fondly and as a great forum member

So sorry to hear this news, will be a great loss to our online family, such a brave lady too.

So very sad to hear this.   Like Yogi, I got used to her going AWOL and knew she wasn't in great health, but always assumed she'd be back and loved seeing her name pop up again.  She was a good 'un.   Rest in peace, Xochers x

Dear dear Judith. I'm so sad. When you made your appearances on the Forum it made my day. Bless you. I'll light you a candle in the big Church.

Desperately sad to read this,  RIP Xochi lovely xx 

So so sad....RIP Xochi...a lovely forum member..xx

Time flies so quickly

Sometimes I don't stop to appreciate

Sadly missed

She really was a Goddess, god love her.  I admired her, she was witty, smart, extremely good fun (Go the Madsen Maniacs!) and a truly decent person.

I knew she had many health problems - more than she lightly expanded about on here, and yet she never complained or looked for attention when things weren't going so well. A real good 'un and a great loss.

Condolences to all friends and family; RIP dear Xochi xxx

From Supes:

How very, very sad.  She was indeed one of the good ones.

RIP Xochi

Oh, this is sad news indeed

I remember the thread that she first posted in (but I can't find it) where everone was asking how to pronounce her name ... I remember Rafe saying that it was too difficult and he was going to call her Pam, as many of us did for quite a while!

A lovely lady

So sad. Like many have said, she was a wonderful bright and witty lady and will be missed

Thanks El ... that was indeed the thread

I am so sad to hear the news Xochi's sis, but grateful that you let us all know.

Reading the posts above, it's quite clear how much Xochi was loved by forum members. Her funny side was clear to everyone who engaged in chat and we can all see she was bright as a button.

One of the things I always enjoyed was the way she twisted and contorted my forum name into other funny and interesting combinations. I was also pleased to find out in one chat that we shared some musical tastes - see an example of both below.

Oh blimey Enthusibles!  

I've hit the jackpot on this one!  Saw Kraftwerk live at the Cambridge Corn Exchange way back in 197mumble!  

But I also saw the two members of the band again when I was brought tickets for Bill Bailey... Tinselworm tour I think it was...  

Sometimes I worry about me. 

My condolences Xochi's Sis to you and Xochi's family and friends.

RIP Xochi  

This is so sad, dreadful news...please pass on my thoughts to Xochi's family...and to you.

such sad news, I will always remember Xochi for her humour and kind manner. a lovely lady who leaves a huge Xochi shaped hole in the forum <3 RIP <3

Sadness indeed! There was always something extra special about Xochi. Likeable, loveable......and quite unlike anyone else!

My condolences to all.

So sorry to hear this sad news RIP Xochi

Supes contacted me again this evening as she wished to comment further:

"I'm reeling about Xochi's death; she was so, so positive, funny, irreverent, kind, principled, humble and amazing".

EC's post made me smile - the sight of  'Enthusiables' always made me grin, and 'Carport' for Garage Joe too.  Great sense of humour our Xochi.

That is sad news indeed , she was a lovely
