Good evening everyone. My name is Mikey but to some of you I might be known as XXL son. It breaks my heart for all of you to find out this way but our mom, Dede, has passed away. I know she has built many friendships through here and her 2nd Life. Please feel free to email me at [email protected] and I can keep you all updated on services.
She loved you all and you were all important to her. I feel like that is important to mention.
The hugs are for you and Scott and the kitties.
She will be missed. I'm sorry to hear this.
Oh no... I am so sorry to hear this.
Oh dear, oh no. Mikey, thank you for passing this on.
Oh my God. I am shocked and so very, very sad
What!? Oh no! I’m so sorry, Mikey. My condolences to you and Scott. I met in Dede in SL and then in RL at a library conference and roomed with her at a library conference in Las Vegas in 2014. She will be greatly missed by many in both SL/RL. 😢😢😢
I’m gutted, I’m so sorry Mikey for your loss. Dede was the sweetest lady I can’t believe this. I’m so sorry. Will miss her 😭

Oh, that's very sad. I haven't known your mom too long but she has been so friendly and kind to me. I'm so sorry.
Dede was an SL acquaintance of mine for several years now. She was always a very kind and welcoming person and her lovely personality will be missed. Sorry for your loss Mikey and Scott.
Thank you for coming here to let us know. So many thoughts, I can't put into words. She will be missed as much as she was loved.
Mikey and Scott, I'm so very sorry for your loss. Thank you so much for letting us know. Your mom was very special to me and I will cherish the memories we made together forever. I'm so glad she and I got to spend time together in real life during her trip to the Netherlands a few years ago.

I found a picture of me and Dede with Teller from Las Vegas in 2014. We had such a good time at that show.
Oh no! I'm so sad to hear this. Dede was the greatest. Please know that she loved both you and Scott and talked about you with love and pride.
Oh no, I'm so shocked and saddened. Dede was one of the loveliest people I've ever met, I will miss her terribly. I'm so sorry for your loss, and thank you for letting us know.
My boys and I met Dede several years ago when we were on one of our spontaneous road trips. We had Chinese food in Huntsville. She was full of laughter and good spirits.
I'm so so sorry to hear this. Dede was lovely and always so welcoming to all. She'll be sadly missed. Thoughts are with you and the rest of the family. xx
Mikey and Scott, I’m so sorry for you loss. She was so proud of the two of you. Dede was such a great friend to so many of us. She will be missed.
Joey and I also first met Dede in Vegas in 2019. If we all find ourselves there again, we will need to toast our friend. <3
Oh no! This is such sad news and we're all just heartbroken. Your mom was such a wonderful person and her passing leaves a huge hole in our hearts. My condolences and we'll all miss her so very much.
She always managed to light up the room whenever she came in, and had time and kindness for everyone. My condolences to you and all who loved her.
Oh no - this is awful news for all of us. Dede was a dear friend in SL for many years.
This is just such terrible news to hear of Dede's passing - I can't process it. She was always so wonderful and kind and had such a fantastic sense of humor. My condolences to you and all, Dede will be greatly missed.
