Sister Golden Hair

Word was just posted in the Facebook group, "Entmoot Expatriates" - that Sister Golden Hair passed away in late December, apparently after long health struggles. On the road now, working off the phone - but I will see if I can post more information later.

Though not active for some time now, SGH is an old-time, long very active Admin here at Entmoot.

oh, no!

She was a great admin here, and a very knowledgeable lover of Tolkien's works. I will always remember her.

There's a thruth, there was many a time when she practically ran this place single-handedly. Entmoot owes her a lot.

I remember her well from when she joined Entmoot. She was only a couple years older than me. Rest in Peace Janet.

I just popped onto here by chance. It's been quite some time.

This is an extremely saddening piece of news to come back to.

She was always lovely to me during my tenure here in my annoying adolescence!

I hope everyone old & new is keeping well.

Same here... I was very surprised and sad to see the news on Facebook. She really put up with my teenage angst patiently and trusted me to become a mod.

Rest in Peace, SGH.

Remember when we all helped her to get her avatar up? That little cat was so cute!! She was definitely one of the most important people on the Moot - her hours and hours of moderating kept it a good and safe place, and her knowledge and love of JRRT was impressive.

I was really saddened to read about this on FB. She was one of the old-timers.

Well, I not only met her, I knew her well enough to email back and forth, especially when my feelings were being trod upon by a certain Tolkien site bigwig, whom she kindly referred to as "the father of the feast." Sweet Janet, I will always remember her for her Platonic crush on Finrod Felagund, whom I once told her she loved like Amy Lowell loved Keats.

RIP, Janet, you were one of the best.

Lot's of love there! I just reread some PMs she sent me years ago. She was a special person.

She coined my signature line, "Let's face it - chicks dig the Elf". It was in gentle mockery, because my fan-fiction character was getting a lot of attention. Not all of the literary variety. Ahem! Janet put me in my place.

I’ve just come back on Entmoot reminiscing about my early internet usage. Sister Golden Hair was one of the first people I encountered on here and she put up with my ignorant 12 year old self better than I would have. Rest In Peace.
