I don't know if this is the right thing to do, and I'm so sorry if not.

catthiefkeith passed away today.

I know there are mumsnetters who know her know how amazing she is, and I just wanted to raise a glass to her memory on here, where she brought a smile to so many faces with her stories of her mad life.

Rest in peace lovely lady.

What an absolute tragedy, her poor DD and family Sad I loved her posts, RIP CTK Flowers

MumIsRunningAMarathon · 18/08/2017 21:10

How very very sad. What a hold she leaves behind

Meningitis. Awful. No warning, just swoops in

I never knew Carh beyond here.... don't know if she was actually a Cath or not. But I have an image of her in my head. Hope she rests in peace

So very sad to hear this awful news. I have just told my husband about her spending the night in the tent after being locked out of the house! RIP CTK xx

Veterinari · 18/08/2017 21:09

I think that's a lovely suggestion Josiah

This is so sad. I am do very sorry.
Poor CTK and her family and friends. Maybe, in time, we can share some of her brilliant threads again? Not now, but later to remember her amazing wit, humour and generosity. Not that she'll be forgotten ❤
RIP

CazzieCatsRock · 18/08/2017 21:07

Absolutely shocking news. Loved her posts. Poor lady and poor family and loved ones having to cope with this tragedy. Just awful news. RIP CTK Flowers

SomethingPhishy · 18/08/2017 21:07

A fabulous Mumsnetter with a great sense of humour, she will be sadly missed. So unfair, so unjust, sending love to her family x

Josiah · 18/08/2017 21:07

I'm just thinking, her daughter is very young, only around 6?

Sorry if this is insensitive but for those that knew her in real life, maybe you could go through some of her posts about some of her funnier stories, not the personal private life ones and print them off for her daughter to read when she's older?

Sorry if that's not OK to suggest.

WicksEnd · 18/08/2017 21:06

slithy Do you think it might be an idea to move this out of chat so it's doesn't disappear after 90 days?
Tell me to MYOB of course, but maybe something to just think about x

Beevor · 18/08/2017 21:06

So sad, she was a great poster; witty and compassionate.

passmethewineplease · 18/08/2017 21:06

How awful. My thoughts are with her family and friends.

CTK always had a way with words.

LunarGirl · 18/08/2017 21:05
