Bad News Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Report Post to a Moderator        IP Information Go to the top of this page

This was on Diinzumo's Facebook page this morning. I am still reeling...

I have some bad news to share: "Katsesama"/"Evangelina" (I didn't use her real name here because she didn't want her real life connected to her Gatch obsession), who was a member here and put together a long-standing Gatchaman site has passed away. My deepest condolences to her friends and family.

I have a fond memory of meeting her for the first time and dancing a silly Gatchaman dance with her at one of our Comic Con Gatcha-gatherings...she was also a great encouragement to me as I began to draw fanart. She also started a Gatchaman Fan Page on Deviant Art and then passed the reigns over to me.

Here is a link to one of the great Gatchaman websites she created:

She was responsible in the setup of the Night at the J fic, an IF which has passed into Gatchamania history and is still being read (I just received a review on it yesterday). She was very encouraging to new writers and a strong part of the Gatchaman community. She will be missed.

Having finally read Diinzumo's Facebook page, I am now doubly sad. Somehow, I knew her by her online names and her real-life name and never put them all together! I feel like I am losing two friends in this fandom now. Frown

Me too, I loved her fic.

Not very old?

We lost one our longtime members on another forum I frequent, very tragic. we have planted many trees in his memory.

A sad loss indeed.

I might not have known her, but I've enjoyed reading her fics, and found her Gatchaman site invaluable when I first joined the forums.

My thoughts go to her family and friends.

Prayers to her family. She helped me when I needed help with Stories in the Gatchaman universe. A very nice woman. She will be missed.

So sorry for your loss. I don't think I've read any of her fanfic, but will make a point of it.

Very sad news -- at least she lives on with her stories and fanart and website. Hers was one of the first websites I ever discovered when I realised that were was a whole Gatch community out there. RIP.

I was stunned to hear this sad news. Her Gatch website was one of the first that I found when I got online and it was one of the ones that inspired me to start writing fanfic.

My thoughts and condolences go out to her family and friends.

k2: Her psychological write up of Joe is one of the most unique pieces that I've read in this fandom:

Thank you for passing on the sad news Springie!

I remember meeting her once while at SDCC and remember her refreshing optimism and how supportive she was. She will be missed!
