Remembering Amelia
All,
I have some sad news to share with you. Amelia, a friend of our community has passed. She was one of our early listeners, a psychologist, the creator of our internship program and admin, and someone who regularly went the extra mile.
The older I get the more important I see how going the extra mile matters. Amelia always went the extra mile. I know she went the extra mile for many of you. She did for me and for that I will always be thankful.
Amelias passing is another reminder of how fragile we are. This is especially true as we all navigate COVID-19. We see all too clearly how delicate this life can be.
Lets remember Amelia and grieve her passing together. If you have a positive memory or story, then please share it here.
Im also trying to find her familys info so I can send them flowers on behalf of our community. We lost a good friend. Lets cherish those we love and honor Amelia by going the extra mile for that person that might be struggling more than we know.
Update: We sent flowers to her mother and pointed to this thread to help her loved ones know Amelia's impact here. Thank you all for helping this be a testament to her time here on 7 Cups.
@GlenM My Prayers are with her family and her friends ...
She gave so much to this awesome site and will be remembered as someone who left a large foot print in The Tea Leaves of 7ucps .
Isiah 40 Verse 31 But they that wait upon The Lord shall renew their strength .They shall mount up wings as Eagles,they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint .
Peace and Love
Tye
I have no words.. this is truly heartbreaking.. I didn't have the chance to ever meet her, but all the things she did for people and for the 7Cups community, wow! My condolences to her family, friends and everyone that knew her.
May she rest in peace <3 An angel with a beautiful heart

Thinking of you and Amelia. My favorite passage from the "The Little Prince" comes to mind "In one of those stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars were laughing, when you look at the sky at night. And when your sorrow is comforted (time soothes all sorrows) you will be content that you have known me. You will always be my friend...I shall not leave you.
@GlenM
Oh dear Heavenly Jesus I know Amelia is up there and doing her 7sippers stuff. When I met Amelia we both bumped heads-yes true. But she would pm me and ask silly questions or say something silly. I knew she was trying to get past my "hard core" self so that my potentail for 7cups can come out.
7cups was lucky to have Amelia as her heart was here-for the leaders for the community.
I have to stop as now I'm crying at this loss. Sweet Amelia you will be missed. I send prayers for the family and close friends that new her
@RumpleSteeleSkin - I agree, brother. Thank you for your raw emotion and honesty shown here in your post. I really do appreciate that from you :) Platy
@GlenM @Heather225 @Hope ... someone? My idea is to print these pages somehow and maybe cut apart the individual posts. You could line them up and fasten somehow (staples? tape?) and present to her family. Sort of like a card for them and to show them how much yes we do/did appreciate all that Amelia did for and with us here at 7cups.com ... 7cupsoftea.com :) I'm not sure if this would get expensive, but it's an idea anyway. <3 Platy
@cyanPlatypus6370 That would be amazing. Good idea! Her family need to know what she meant to this communuty and all of us.
@GlenM
I am so heartbroken to hear this. She has always been there when I needed someone. I have lost two other friends but I grew to know her and all she has taught me will be used while I am here on 7 cups. To her family my deepest condolences
@GlenM
This is truly heartbreaking to hear. While I may have never had the honor to meet her, she was a big part in this community and has left a huge impact on everyone. My deepest condolences to her family and friends. May her soul rest in peace
With the current outbreak of COVID-19, i have realised that lives are short and people will go without even getting a chance to say goodbye. Though I never had the opportunity to meet her, this is a heartbreaking news and my condolences to her family, friends and all her loved ones. May she rest in peace.

@GlenM I never had the opportunity in meeting her but my deepest condolences to their family, friends, and everyon of the community that knows her, may she rest in peace and sending big hugs to everyone that needs it. Is so hard to see one of our community leave but she'll be enjoying helping others wherever she is right now and touching more hearts.
@GlenM
Oh my! Rest well! Youll be missed. Amd your memories of how much you made a difference will live on!
Sleep tight! Be another Angel up there!
