People's Army of Sonoma

Hail PAS,

A somber evening though it was, I am confident that Diane, looking down from Heaven would have been touched and know how much she was loved and will be missed by the Sonoma community and PAS/KVP family. Thanks to all the other Guilds present who came to share their memories and help ease our sorrows. And a very very sincere expression of my personal gratitude to Queen Mum for a memorial ceremony befitting the Glorious Lady Mystique-PAS aka Sky-KVP.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words...Well...here then just a sampling of the heart felt expression of love shared by the Sonoma clans as we bid farewell to our beloved Friend, confidant and Guildmate.


SRO in the Luna Chapel















IKE had a great tale to tell of Mystique and Satin (Not her Cu dog!)
Please read the Log





AVORION'S message rings true for all who knew and loved Mystique.



VAL...OMG what a wonderful memory!!!





REST IN PEACE SKY/MYSTIQUE...AMEN

Thank you, Chalnoth, for posting these photos. I find my eyes filled with tears again.

If someone could post her RL photo, I would love to see it.

Queen Mum and all involved, it was a beautiful ceremony. I reflected, I cried, I laughed, I smiled....both fondly and sadly.........and I remembered.

Thank you.

I meant to mention....44 people came to the memorial.

Wonderful post. Great screen shots. Thank you, Chalnoth. Thanks, Queen Mum, for the ceremony and the screen shots.

Lots of memories. It was good to share them with Diane's friends.

Here's a photo of Sky

Maldar, I agree with everything you said. I had all of those emotions as well.

Thank you Queen Mum and Chalnoth and everyone that put that memorial together.

I loved the story about satin and that will stay with me forever, along with my memories of Mystique (especially her voice in ventrilo).

As I said at the memorial, I am thankful that Mystique was a part of my life.

Darkstar, thank you from the bottom of my heart for posting Diane's photo (and darned if I'm not tearing up again.)

It would be very nice to post everyone's photo so we can see who we are friends with.

KD, I agree........I will never forget Diane's voice in Ventrillo and, yes, the Satin story will stay with me forever, too.

Maldar, just an FYI, if you go to the UO Resources and Links forum, theres a link to PAS albums. That website has tons of pics of PAS members, as well as some ingame pics of PAS events.

I was sure I replied to this last night but it's nowhere to be seen...

Chalnoth, thanks for the post and the pictures. Avorion is the black and purple gargoyle sitting in the far left corner, and he did not get up and speak. It's ok with me if I get credited with saying some nice things, but whoever really said them might be upset.

Darkstar, thanks so much for the picture. What a delightfully smiling face!

Thanks for posting the photograph Darkstar. What a beautiful smile

Thanks also for a wonderful service Queen Mum, and thanks to everyone who shared their Mystique/Skye stories with us.

We will all miss her very much indeed.

it was me that said that but i didn't even realize someone else was credited i was just teared up to see so many people come to say bye for now to such a beautiful lady...i miss her daily

I am still kind of recovering from surgery that I had so I was not able to make it. But has anyone thought of seeing if an EM can do a player memorial shrine in her honor?

Unfortunately I have been stuck out of game and could not attend the memorial.
Glad to see so many friends were able to celebrate Skye's life. I know the Arcane Circle in Brit will feel empty without her presence.

Mountain Dew, the memorial has been taken care of. We have a book and candle at the "Sonoma Church" in honor of her, we placed a statue of Mystique on the roof of PAS Museum, we placed a statue of Sky at the KVP Hall of Wisdom (KVP guild 2nd floor). If you get in game I can take you to the different spots created to honor her memory.

This is truly bittersweet. I will miss Mystique dearly. I can still hear her voice from ventrilo. I am sorry but I started crying when I saw the rl picture of Mystique because that is the first time I have ever seen what she really looks like and it is exactly how I pictured her. I feel like I have lost a grandma...a very loved and appreciated grandma...
