So sad, R.I.P. Kerry :O

[Ninastar]

oh god, i saw this and I was hoping it was some kind of joke amongst the thread.

this is awful. She was so lovely. I just don't believe it. RIP Kerry, you were so nice

I suppose it's only a testament to how much of an impact this website has had on me for the past (almost) 5 years that I broke down in tears earlier. The circumstances of this rang too close to home - my brother passed away 2 and a half years ago from an unexpected form of pneumonia.

But there's something deeply upsetting when it's someone you've spent a good few years talking to but have never met outside of the internet. I was just talking to Lee about this and how we feel a little unable to share this grief with friends or family, since they'd struggle to understand.

Some might call us sad for caring so much about those we've never met - but in my opinion this is what makes TiBB a wonderful place. We might argue over the pettiest and silliest of things but at the heart of it I truly believe that we genuinely care about each other, and it's incredibly saddening when part of this community is taken away.

All these messages of support for David and all the amazing words being said about Kerry makes me proud to be part of this community.

I completely understand where you're coming from.

Death is the one certainty in life for all of us, yet it's such a shock when it happens. To happen to someone so young and so suddenly is a terrible tragedy. Very unfair indeed.

Great post, I wholeheartedly agree. Kerry was such a lovely member, I remember she always used to help me keep the EE thread active and I really will miss her on this forum. My thoughts are with Kerry's family and friends and thanks David for taking the time to let us know about this.

I couldn't agree with this more..

[Jords]

Its OK I had a cry too, Im genuinely saddened I was really fond on ol Kerry

[Ninastar]

That's so true Shaun

[MTVN]

Yeah I understand Shaun, even though I've not been here as long, it's so weird because it's someone you've never met and yet still consider a friend, a person, and someone that you knew, and not just a name on a screen

[Jarrod]

RIP Kerry

[Harry!]

RIP Kerry

Kerry was such a lovely member and a true contribution to the forum. It is so sad to see her go and I wish all the best wishes to you David and all of the family. Kerry will never be forgotten.

Listening to Masterpiece when I read the title really moved me Kerry will forever belong on TiBB's finest members.

[Maia]

I'm with you there Shaun, it felt like losing a family member when I first saw this thread, even though we weren't technically related. We're like a big family on here.

[James]

I'm so sad and shocked to read this news. Kerry was a brilliant member of this community and was a great mod. I am so sorry for your loss, David.

[Red Moon]

It is always so sad to hear the news that we have lost a member. It is a sad day for everyone that has known her in someway.

Looking at all the touching messages here she has touched many peoples lives in a wonderful way and it is clear she will be missed by many.

My heart goes out to David and his family and all those that knew her on the site. I'm sure she will be remembered fondly by many here and live on in their hearts.

[Niall]

Oh my God! I've been wondering where Kerry has been, I'm so shocked to hear this has happened. She was so sweet, kind and funny.. I'm gonna miss her.

I'm so sorry for your loss David. Condolences to you and your family.

I just can't believe this has happened..

[Stu]

****ing A, Shaun.

Group hug.

[Braden]

I never spoke to Kerry that much on the site but she was so lovely from what I know, I'm so sorry for your loss David, giving you and Kerry's family all my love.

R.I.P Kerry

[Sam:)]

Actually genuinely shed a tear, even if we never had a real conversation Does anyone know how old she is?

In her 30s and she had a young daughter too which makes it all the more sadder that a daughter will grow up without her mother.

[Niamh.]

She was 34
