Our member "qahtan" has passed away
« on: January 08, 2014, 13:52:56 »
I just wanted to let everyone know that the member of our forum that went by the nickname "qahtan" passed away a month ago today, December 8, 2013.  Her name
was Glory.  She was a good friend to me, and will deeply missed.

She was a active member of this group, and perhaps some of you wondered why there were no posts from her. 

That's all I wished to say, thanks for taking the time to read this.

Many thanks for letting us know this sad news. 
I had exchanged Christmas cards and emails with her since she'd been a member here, and she also phoned occasionally for a quick chat.
I'll remember her for her wonderful looking loaves, pictures of which she posted on here.

Sad news indeed.  Qahtan gave some wonderful advice about breadmaking, and will be very fondly remembered.

I am very sorry to hear that. It was so nice reading about her posts about her garden so far away.
It is very sweet of her friend to inform us, I had noticed that her posts were not so frequent for a while, and then there were no posts for a time. I hope she passed away peacefully. She will be missed.
