queensthiefHi, everybody,
A number of you are probably aware that longtime Sounisian![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
philia_fan was diagnosed with terminal cancer some time ago. She passed away this Tuesday morning. She died in her sleep, at home, with her family there.
Philia liked really good books, she made really good food and wonderful stories, she has a really good family, and she was a really good person.
I don't really know how to tag this, so if one of the mods could, that would be great.

My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

Date: 3/22/12 07:40 pm (UTC)Thank you for letting us know. I got to meet Philia in person only twice and I count my blessings that
she came to the bookstore the second time I visited Boston in order to talk with me. She made that
day better for me and I am grateful for it. I will miss her comments here. She was insightful and
temperate and funny. As ms said, a true Sounisian and one of the reasons I love this place.

Date: 3/23/12 08:39 am (UTC)I know her presence here will be sorely missed.
I always enjoyed her comments and insights. I just now looking at her journal realize she was a practitioner of Aikido, as am I. I wish I had known her better.

Date: 4/2/12 04:02 am (UTC)Philia was absolutely lovely -- I really enjoyed meeting her in Boston. We walked all around the city talking about books and music...My sympathies to her family, and all her friends.
