This is very sad for me too, we were friends, I thought she was a he as her e-mails had "Sam Hung" as the name.

She sent great headers of the Brian Jones grave since 2004, even the last one in 2009 was provided by her. She also posted some great and rare pictures of Brian and of course comments on the Brian threads.

She told me those stories about Steve Marriott and Brian Jones in the embryonic Humble Pie, she met Steve and she was really informed on him.

We also had some cool conversations about Zappa, using Zappa quotes in our e-mails

Of course we talk also about Donovan, Linda and Julian frequently

This was the last header from her, it was used last July

She was one of my "Brian" related friends but as you can see also about Steve, Frank and Don

I just read a lot of our e-mail some minutes ago, didn't know she was sick, our last e-mail is from lat August 2009

RIP

We're gonna miss you

We need to send some flowers to Brian's grave this year in her honor, if someone can help let me know about how to send, some years ago we sent some via a local supplier and they sent us the picture

I'm devasted, I really loved her

Why?

I love that picture....the card behind the red flowers with the Brian picture on the front, up against the gravestore, is the one I sent last year....I, too, thought she was a guy for a long time. When I first read her "name", Waterdragon, I misread it as "Walterdragon", so I thought her first name might be Walter. But....I think on that name with affection. This is just so sad. Sad

I can't stop thinking about it... Sad

:(
