It is with much regret that we have to tell you that Tezza has very sadly died.

Tezza not only posted here in the forums but has quite a lot of quizzes online and contributed to the Chat Boards.

She will be sadly missed by us all.

RIP

This is such very sad news. Tezza gave an awful lot to FT in her unassuming way. Her posts made her seem gentle and caring, and I wish I had met her. She posted regularly in Bookworms and was often in the Lounge, especially if anyone needed help and support.
She made me laugh too. In a thread about romantic and not so romantic meetings,this is how she met her partner!:
My current partner I met at an abattoir where I was in charge of Occupational Safety and Health, and he was a butcher !
Tezza you are sadly missed.

That is very sad news indeed.

Back in 2010 (here on the Forums) Tezza supported my 'lobby' to have the Irish flag avatar available for Irish players' profiles (the happy result of which was Terry giving almost everyone their own country flag - prior to that I think it was just the USA, Canada, Britain and Australia).

In turn I supported her preference for native Australians to be able to choose the Aboriginal flag for their profile page ... although sadly that wasn't possible.

Goodbye Tezza, you'll be missed.

Ar dheis Dé go raibh a hanam dílis.

Sorry to hear and I send my condolences to tezza's family from Texas.

Oh no, what sad news. Please pass on my condolences, Sue, if you are in contact with the family.

Thank you for letting us know, Sue. I'm sure we would have otherwise have wondered why she no longer posted. I'm sorry to hear of her death and if you are in contact with her family, please convey my condolences. She will be missed.

MotherGoose has given us the sad news, I am not in contact with the family myself.

Oh dear, that is terrible news. She was such a funny, kind and gracious presence here. I always enjoyed seeing her name on a forums post or in my mailbox. My condolences to her friends and family, if they stop by here or if our messages can be passed along.

We have posted a message from her team on her facebook page. We could post individual messages from anyone who isn't on faceboook.

I am so sorry to hear this news. I enjoyed reading her posts. My condolences to her family.

What terribly sad news. I loved reading her posts on the chat boards, especially her stories, so evocative. Please pass on my condolences to her family and friends.

I am very sorry to hear about Tezza - I loved reading her posts and her observations about the world around her were second to none. Please pass on my condolences too.

Oh I'm very sad to hear this

Could you place a link to this thread on her page?

What a shame. I had the pleasure of working with Tezza on quizzes for the Author's Lounge; her presence on the site will definitely be missed.

So sad to read this news. She was always so positive and fun.
Condolences to her family and friends.

Tezza's Facebook page has maximum security - you can't see much at all on her wall unless she's allowed you access in the past. You can't view any comments, messages etc.

This is very sad news. I didn't know she was sick and sincerely hope she didn't suffer. Sighs and hugs for those close to her.

Very sad to hear, she was fascinated in the supernatural and one of the small group of people who picked up my interest and went on to have conversations on it offsite. She will be greatly missed here.

Done.

Thank you, then her friends and family will be able to read this and know that she was a popular and well respected member of this site.

They'll also be able to read her blog, and see what a stunning writer she was - if they didn't already know that!

My condolences to her family and friends. To people who don't know how someone can have a great presence here and elsewhere on the internet it sometimes comes as a surprise but I'm sure a pleasant one.

That's sad indeed. Tezza helped me out with writing a few quizzes and she seemed a lovely lady. I was hoping to be able to meet her someday as she lives only a few hours from where I do. Sadly that will now never happen

I'm very sorry to hear this news. I shall miss her contributions to the site.
