Last year, she was instrumental in my getting tickets for Bryan Ferry in Paris. She left the office in her lunch break and phoned me in the UK on her mobile, as she stood in the foyer of the theatre, to make sure she was buying the tickets I preferred (partly because she did not understand my not wanting stalls tickets), despite not knowing me at all other than as a name on e-mails in Avalon. I wanted to meet her on the night and say thank you personally, but she was unwell that night so did not attend the restaurant. I had no idea of the extent of her illness and had been trying recently to contact her. So impossible to say anything meaningful in times like this, but wanted to mark this sad loss. best wishes Richard Mills ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 2 Jul 2003 06:24:26 +0100 From: "Tracy Elliott" Subject: RE: [AVALON] Sad News This is indeed sad news. Caroline was a warm and generous person. My lasting memory will be walking from the Paris show singing Re-Make Re-Model with her, which she actually started. We lost a star yesterday.

I'm writing this note to you because I know she was very active among the fans of Roxy Music and her name is mentioned on your site as a contributor of photographs. I think she was involved in some groups/mailing lists; maybe you have a way to pass the sad news. Laurent <<< SNIP>>> Those of you who have met Caroline like I did on several occasions will know how charming and wonderful a person she was and will be as saddened and shocked as I am. I had no idea of the extent of her illness, may she rest in peace.

My heartfelt condolences to all her family and friends. She will be greatly missed, as will be her enthusiastic contributions to this list.

And like Colleen wrote: my deepest sympathy to those of you among us who were her friends. She was a truly amazing person from your letters.
