Very sad news: We've lost one of our own.
  • I have some terrible news that I unfortunately need to give to everyone. Yesterday evening one of our longest posting members, Compass Point, passed away. We don't know exactly what happened, only that she went for a nap and never woke up :'(

    I'm still in so much shock about it and can barely process it. I've known her for 15 years and it's because of her that I found this game and the amazing community that comes with it.

    Compass Point was an absolute sweetheart and was completely fascinated by horse genetics. I will miss her greatly.

    Please send your thoughts to her family and loved ones.
  • This is awful. She was so young. :(
    Need to contact me? Read this first.

    I sometimes get busy and miss things. If your private message, question, etc. gets missed please ping me so I can follow up with you. I am also always happy to explain or clarify. (HAJ does not have a customer service email, please send me a forum message! )

  • I’m so sorry to hear this. I will pray for her and her family and I will also pray for you.
    I’m autistic and I struggle with any kind of communication, so I apologize in advance if I say anything rude or offensive because there’s a 99% chance that I have no clue I did it. I appreciate your patience with me!

  • Oh no, that is so sad. My thoughts are with her family.

    I cannot imagine how it would feel to lose a friend that I've known for so long.
    My thoughts are with her family and with you :x

  • I met Heather got to be about 17 years ago through a different game. She had wicked sense of humor and was a hell of an artist. She did all my banners for my accounts. I still have them. She also hounded me until I came to this game and community. She gave me my first lp'd brindle and started my love with Bring Back the Sun herd helper. She will be sorely missed. RIP Heather may wings of Angel's carry you forth.

  • Corvus - she's the one who brought me to the game as well. You are so right. She was so funny and so full of life. Just yesterday I formulated an idea of creating custom bullet journals and was planning on talking to her about doing the cover art.

    I will miss gushing with her over Zenyatta's new filly in a couple months and pretending that this year we'll actually do NaNoWriMo.

    I want to create a special mare for her with the create event, but I don't have funds in real life or in game. If anyone is able to, please post them here.
  • What kind of horse? I want to help too.
    Thanked by 1TrueNorth
  • I never met her, but my condolences for your loss. It is hard to lose a person close to you.
    Thanked by 1TrueNorth
  • She is nothing Super Fancy ; but she is SUPER Special

    I’d be more than happy to give her to you for 500. I am also happy to keep her until you have the funds.

  • Thank you so much everyone! She loved appies and black brindles and DP were two of her favourites. I have an XP appy hh that I'm going to use if I can make something special. I'd love to make a black brindle appy with hz dp, maybe sb2 or kitm and macchiato. I don't know if I'll be able to do all that, but I would love to. She was so excited when we got Macchiato. If someone has the money and would like to contribute with that, I would be beyond grateful. If I can make the pony that I want to, I will raffle all of the eggs from her first flush. If anyone is able to contribute with Splash M, I would be very happy to give you three eggs from her flush!

  • I remembered that after I created - I default to horses. The one that is chosen will be made into a pony!

    What about this young lady?
    Should I put her up in a chat room for anyone? (not sure what to do with her now)

  • Thank you, Xzeina! I think I have the right pony now. HelenofTroy wonderfully created a cherry drop for me to use <3<br />

  • Beautiful! I’m putting mine up for sale if anyone wants her (I’m assuming this is okay since it is related to the discussion). I also have two other mares.

  • Oh no, I am so sorry for your loss.... <3
    Feel free to message and talk to me any time!
  • This is heartbreaking. :(
    Heather was a good friend to me when I first started. I will miss her, and her sharp wit, very much.. I remember her sharing pictures of her chickens, the video where she rode with a carrot on a stick, her rock collection.. some insane work stories.

    Rest In Peace, Heather.

  • She really loved her chickens. The video is with Sadie, the halflinger she shared with a mutual friend of ours. It's one of my favourite "memories" of her. I forgot about her rock collection!

    Thank you for sharing this Alianne.
  • What sad news. I'm lifting up all her friends and family in prayer. May she rest in peace.

  • I am still trying to wrap my head around this news. Heather was so young and it seems so wrong. One thing is for sure, she will be terribly missed around here. She touched so many people with her sweet nature....
  • Words fail me.......

    Condolences to all of Heather's friends and family. She was taken too soon.

  • If this is okay, how old was Heather? A general age range is fine, I’d just like to know if anyone feels comfortable sharing.

  • She would have been 39 in July :(
  • Ooo, she was close in age to me, I'll be 43 at the end of this month.
