We meet Grammies on Everquest, She was always a favorite of all the players that knew her, she would take the time to help others even when she had something else to do. I Often look back to when my first character was a lil one, she snuck on him and gave him a full bag of gear. At that time in the game 2001 it was a priceless gift,that has been appreciatted often, I have tried to do the same for other begginers in the game. We will all miss her very much.

- Linda Knific, Athens, AL
I have known Grammies online for many years, and like so many others am devastated by the loss of such a kind, sweet, and all around wonderful person. Grammies was once given the title of 'The Charitable' and there was no other more deserving of such a name. She was always there with a kind word, an ear to listen, or to help, no matter what anyone needed. And some believe that those that have passed before us can hear our thoughts, so I ask everyone to stop and think of the good times with Grammies. She will be missed all over the world. And to those of her family, and those who knew her outside the virtual community. Thank you for allowing all of us to share our thoughts and memories of Grammies The Charitable. One of the most loving and wonderful people I ever met, and will never forget.
- Theresa K, Vernon, CT

My family and I first met Grammies through EverQuest when the server TP went live. From the first meeting of this lovely lady I felt a certain comfort in her nature and a true genuine care for myself and my family. All four of us knew and adored Grammies. I am truly blessed to have been grouped with her one last time last week. She is one that I will always remember with fondness and love. I will miss her dearly, the fact that her name will never again light my friend list is terribly heartbreaking. Now if I, one who has known her so little can miss her so much, I can only imagine how you her family feels. Our hearts are with you in your loss. Sweeteyes Oskar Saldarin Gnormandy
- Marcia Hill, Albany, OR
Like many others, I was fortunate enough to make the acquaintance of Grammies through Everquest.

Grammies will be deeply missed. I was new to the stars and was getting jumped. She not even knowing me saved my butt lol. She was a very sweet person and I wish that I could have known her longer.

Grammies you will certainly be missed by all who knew and loved you in the virtual world of Everquest for so many years.

I miss you hun, and I will see you again one day and we will laugh together once again. Kreolitina/Mesmorize Linda Knific

I have known Grammies online for many years, and like so many others am devastated by the loss of such a kind, sweet, and all around wonderful person. Grammies was once given the title of 'The Charitable' and there was no other more deserving of such a name. She was always there with a kind word, an ear to listen, or to help, no matter what anyone needed. And some believe that those that have passed before us can hear our thoughts, so I ask everyone to stop and think of the good times with Grammies. She will be missed all over the world. And to those of her family, and those who knew her outside the virtual community. Thank you for allowing all of us to share our thoughts and memories of Grammies The Charitable. One of the most loving and wonderful people I ever met, and will never forget.

My family and I first met Grammies through EverQuest when the server TP went live. From the first meeting of this lovely lady I felt a certain comfort in her nature and a true genuine care for myself and my family. All four of us knew and adored Grammies. I am truly blessed to have been grouped with her one last time last week. She is one that I will always remember with fondness and love. I will miss her dearly, the fact that her name will never again light my friend list is terribly heartbreaking. Now if I, one who has known her so little can miss her so much, I can only imagine how you her family feels. Our hearts are with you in your loss. Sweeteyes Oskar Saldarin Gnormandy

I met Jean, 'Grammies', several years ago on Tholuxe Paells when I first started playing Everquest.

My heartfelt condolences go out to the friends and family of Jean.

Dearest 'Grammies', You were the best of us. Your memory & all that you have done during your brief stay in Norrath will forever resinate in the hearts of all who knew you.
