Hello, Ward!
Tuesday October 22 2024 17:05, from Ward Dossche -> All:
WD> I have just received the disturbing news that Janis Kracht, former
WD> Z1C, has passed away yesterday evening after an all too fast fight
WD> with pancreatic cancer.
I feel sorry to hear that Janis Kracht passed away after her fight with cancer. We never met in person, but we talked over netmails and phone calls, and I'm really going to miss her.
She was a major part of the FidoNet community, and anyone who knew her knows she didn't give up easily. She handed off the Z1C role in 2018 due to her health, but in 2022, she rejoined FidoNet by re-establishing her node, showing that same fierce spirit in facing her illness.
Janis told me she wasn't one to give up, and she fought hard. We've lost someone special, and she'll be missed by a lot of us.
