Remembering Sakura

I still can't believe it's been over six years.  It still feels like yesterday I read the news on the main page with my heart just sinking and a sick feeling in my stomach.
 
I was going through some of her flicker photos and reading blog entries the other night. It is such an amazing archive of her persona. So positive and full of life and love.
 
So sad when one of our crew moves on . I toasted one to her last night, and my thoughts go out today as well. miss ya kid.
 
Didn't get chance to post here on the 14th that I still miss M-Gro.  Infact I STILL can't walk through the garden section of a store without thinking of her.

In life I deal with so much BS and stress with government, broadcasters, contracts that this Leafs community gives me a place to be light hearted (as well as passionate). 

Sakura was so sensitive to others and so concerned that everyone was OK that it had a profound effect on all of us who were touched by her.

You will never be forgotten Sakura!

I echo all your thoughts.  I posted early on the 14th, but it seems to have been wiped out with the site outage.

She was such a good person that really brought out the best in others.  The world desperately needs more people like her.  She is missed so much by so many.
 
7 years. Where has the time went?

Maybe it's just me but it seems the world hasn't been as cheerful or as positive since her life ended.

I hope and pray her family are still well and one day we'll all get into TML debates in the sky again with Sakura.
 
It's been a busy summer and life is as usuall "hectic" but Sakura is never far from my thoughts.  She just pops into them here and there and sometimes, it's still hard to grasp the reality that she isn't here.  7 years?  Gosh, where has the time gone.

You are never forgotten m-gro.  We miss and love you dearly and this world isn't the same without you.  Keep watching out for us hun!
 
I never got to know her really well.  We PIM'd many, many times - but I never took the time to really get to know her.  That bothers me, 7 years later.

Our time is limited here, and learning from her - live life for today, and get to really know those around you, and enjoy life to it's fullest.
 
The other day I was thinking about when I first started posting here and the people on the site. Can't remember, maybe 2002 or 03. It was good quality people like "m-gro" (Hannah) that kept it interesting.

I was always curious what her username represented. I never met her but she would fit right in to the crowd on here these days. The board has some good people here lately, with some pretty funny commentary to boot.

I have been on and off for a few years (life has been a bumpy ride at times) but some people just stick with you, even on an internet forum. Some peoples character just shines through.

I also remember salzy.  :o
 
Miracle Gro........yeah, she was a green thumb, among her other talents and interests (I remember her love for photography, as well as plants and flowers etc)and that's to the best of my recollection, what the m in  m-gro stood for.

Indeed as has been mentioned, m-gro was for Miracle-Gro, from the fertilizer and her love for gardening.  She always thought the name was kind of goofy.  She was Sakura, Hana was her dog.

It's good to hear from people that she touched with her personality.  She was a really kind and really genuine person, and the world desperately needs more people like her.  She really brought goodness and light with her wherever she went, as I'm sure all the people who knew her would attest.

I remember going to her house with a few TMLfaners for a memorial - her gardens were awesome!
 
I may sound like a broken record saying this each and every year, but I still can't believe this.  A part of me feels as if she is still around and is just taking a hiatus from the site to concentrate on her professorship. :(

I'll never forget the sinking feeling I got in my stomach reading Rob's post about her tragic death.

Me too Peter.  :'(  She was a very special person.

I still make the hamburgers that we had at her house one time at a BBQ.  They were so good and my kids still have the rocks that she let them pick out and take home.  She was a very very rare breed and still greatly missed.
 
My gosh, 8 yr anniversary of her loss coming up. It still doesn't seem real. I think about her a lot during this time of the year and still miss her very much. You are always with us m-gro.
 
Hey m-gro, I tried making it through the month without posting something here since it has be 9 years now.

Couldn't make it though.  Still miss you.

Dan
