Leah, I just heard something really terrible, and I do not want it to be true. Send me an email or post an update or something. I'm quite worried...

Thanks to the people who confirmed the rumors... your thoughtfulness, sensitivity and sympathy are all greatly appreciated.

My thoughts are with Leah's friends and family tonight. She was a wonderful woman, who I count myself very lucky to have known. I share in your grief and offer my sincerest condolences to you.

Thank you for this.

It means more than you could know.

I too am shocked into disbelief, but I know it to be true, and it is a sad truth at that. She really was a very neat person and I had always hoped she moved back to NC to rejoin our group of eclectic peeps.

it's interesting to read the comments to some of the articles, as people try and assume or guess the type of person she was. Her being there, doing that, going to jump across something like that, it just sounds like her. She was an adventurer and not one to shy away from things. I'm actually surprised she didn't go and jump across first!

But nevertheless, accidents happen. Where ever you are Leah, we'll be thinking about you! Now you can 'build world' in that great big place out there and provide unix support to the universe!

I was a classmate of Leah's from jr high - high school. I am soo shocked and saddened by this. We didn't talk a lot in school, but after graduation I caught up with her online. She was so smart and interesting..I loved reading her posts. I'm just in total shock. I feel so much for her sister right now.

I wish we had been better friends in high school, rather than after. She planned our 10 year reunion and I didn't go because I chickened out. Would've been the last chance to have seen her. Shock, shock shock.

What a wonderful, beautiful, lovely young woman. Leah...I'll never forget you. I can't believe this.
