Sad news indeed.
I hope that all their lovely memories will ease her family’s grief.

I enjoyed her posts and reactions, I'm sure those who knew her far better willl have really wonderful memories.
It's always sad when we don't hear from someone for a long time, we wonder, but only rarely do we get what some call "closure"
My best wishes to her family.

I was saddened to receive a message from Xin's daughter about her death in November 2020.  Carol (Treetotal) and I did try and make contact with her but it seems we were too late with our messages  :'(

I recall her posting pictures of the artwork she had done on her walls at her house by the sea, and her tales about the trip abroad on her own.  Happy memories  :)

Condolences to Xin's loved ones and friends, very sad.

 I had also noticed there had been no activity for ages and with some concern had periodically checked over the past 18 months or so to see if her profile told me she had looked in at all and now it's showing last active 11 April not October 2020. Thankful for the thread and the comments and memories, does as TY says give closure, some folk are just conspicuous by their absence and she has indeed been missed.

The profile is now being used by Xinia's daughter, who is keen to pick up on her family history research :)

Thank you for the explanation Sarah, appreciate that and do think that's lovely it will be in family use of course, was just thinking perhaps you would have changed the status otherwise as you sometimes do when in the know  :)

It's not that I'm any private investigator either, far off it, just a bit naturally curious and remembered activity previously had stayed at 24 October 20 and observed now changed.

Cheers, mare

Yes, she was fun and I really enjoyed seeing her artwork.
