Very sad news about the lovely MNetter BerryLellow

I can't quite believe that I'm writing this post. :(

The lovely, funny, awesome mumsnetter who posted under the name of BerryLellow for the past 4 years, died very suddenly on Wednesday.

She leaves behind her her two gorgeous boys and many many shocked and saddened friends and family.

She was a big part of the September '09 ante/post natal group, which is how I met her on here, and why we have stayed in touch! Some of you will have met her at the London Christmas meet ups in 2010 and 2011 (she was the one who danced - and danced, and danced and danced, then danced some more!).

She will be so hugely missed. :(

Very sad, though I didn't know her. RIP. Thanks

MsIngaFewmarbles · 02/05/2014 09:53

Oh no. I remember her from the September 09 group and met her at the Christmas parties. What a lovely woman. How sad :(

TrinityRhino · 02/05/2014 09:54

oh no, I'm so sorry to hear this

RIP BerryLellow Thanks

CorporateRockWhore · 02/05/2014 09:58

I didn't know her at all, but two little boys...so, so awful. Sad

ChutesTooNarrow · 02/05/2014 09:59

I have been so shocked. I will miss her so much. She was kind and supportive and moved on from a friend 'from the internet' into a true friend. It is inconceivable that we won't be sharing mundane twaddle on facebook, won't be hearing about her boys, won't be supporting each other when things get a bit blah, won't be seeing her pins on Pinterest, or photos any more.

OneLittleLady · 02/05/2014 10:02

i didn't know her but this is terribly sad news. Her poor family Sad Thanks

So awful Sad. I saw BerryLellow around although we didn't know each other, she seemed like she was a lovely person.

Berry will be sorely missed by her loving family and friends. I still can't believe it either Kveta. My heart goes out to her beautiful boys.

So sad, I don't think I ever "spoke" with her, but I remember he being involved with the woolly hugs.

My thoughts are with her family and friends :(
