Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I have some very very unfortunate news frens.
Undine53, a respected and valued veteran of this community, passed away suddenly last week. I have been in touch with her daughter who posted this yesterday (she was intending to post here, but didn't have the details at the time about the correct forum).

I am very sorry for Undineβs passing.π₯Ί We often exchanged messages and we were in really good terms. I pray she found a nice spot behind the Pearly Gates.
All my condolences to u/UndinesKid.ππ»π
ohnoooooo. my condolences. she was one of the good ones.
This is sad news. Prayers go up to her family during their time of need and loss. I really liked her a lot. ππ
I sent you a text..,
An anon I've stayed in touch with reached out with this very unfortunate news...thank you...I was not going to participate with this account but I have to, like it's an obligation. She was a good one.
Undine, I'm still not sure what that even means exactly, but wherever you are, I'm sure it's nice and I expect you are at peace.
--PS
Thank you for logging in psalt. Although I lurk regularly I don't post here much anymore, however, like you, I was compelled to log in to let the anons know about Undine, who was a well-respected and beloved fren to so many.
I was fortunate to have known Undine offline - although not long enough to have had a chance to meet (we are in different countries). She was a memorable individual who will not be forgotten.
I wish more anons could connect offline as friends - this forum is a special place, however, hearing an anon's voice, and speaking to them in depth and getting to know them, for me is perhaps the greatest blessing of being an anon. I will miss Undine dearly.

Undine is a water nymph. Mum loved Arthur Rackham's illustrations. Thanks for the kind words.
Thank you! I had never known & didn't ask. Now I have an illustrator to look up.
You're in for a treat!
Welcome to Great awakening.win lil undine your mum left quite a weight on our hearts. We would love to have you join us and carry on this Great awakening. Sorry for your loss. You will be in our prayers

Thanks for sharing this information and the pic. Every bit as lovely as I imagined she'd be. Love and gratitude to Undine and her family. May she find the rest she deserves in God's light.
Iβm so sorry to see this. She was a valuable fren to all of us. God, please have her in Your Arms. Give her family peace, knowing that sheβs now in the best place of all. In Jesusβ name we ask these things. Amen.
Amen! π
My mum had a lot of love for this forum and the people on it. Thanks MAGAKitty for your kindness, you were a great friend to Mum.
Edit: thank you all for your kind and comforting words.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I know she was very much looking forward to spending time with you. I hope you carry her beautiful spirit of hope for brighter days in your heart as she did. Let loving memories of happy times fill your heart with love and joy in remembrance.
May it comfort you to know that your mom was a beloved anon here with a lovely demeanor and always had a kind word and/or prayer for those struggling with life's challenges or losses. She'll be missed here by those of us on GAW who grew to know her, if only online, and value her many thoughtful contributions.
May the Lord comfort and console you and your mom's other loved ones as He welcomes her into His loving arms for eternal rest. πβοΈ
Yes - she was very much loved here and appreciated. a very kind soul. Loved Jesus so much!
She was a personal favorite.
"All that matters is that we keep the faith and keep looking up." - her

So sorry for your loss, fren. We will greatly miss Undine53 and her contributions to GAW.

Hi
I live in the midlands not far from your mum, and I was on first name terms with her. We used to communicate via DM here on GAW.
We meant to meet up one day, maybe in a pretty town (L) which lies between where we live, but we never did.
I am very sorry for your loss indeed.
She mentioned you! She was fond of you for sure.
I'm so sad for your loss. Your Mother was an amazing woman. Her contribution here was so greatly appreciated and she will be sadly missed. This news will have me feeling blue for a few days. Thanks for taking the time to let all us frogs know of her passing.
Oh how sad this is π₯². But now she is in the arms of our Savior. β€οΈ
