Melissa -
It's with great sadness that I read your post. I am one of the Shire Moderators and have played with Crystal in several of her games as well as moderating a game that she founded.
She will certainly be missed in the Shire. She put a lot of effort and energy into her writing, and many people enjoyed gaming with her. I am putting up a thread in the Barrowdowns Forum to let people know this sad news. Some of Crystal's friends may want to share their thoughts. Once I put it up, I will post a link here, so you can click on it if you wish.
Again, I am so sorry to hear this. My prayers are with your family in the days ahead.
