It's with a heavy heart that I regret to inform you of the passing of my Aunt, Margaret Basta. My Aunt Peg ran the Orphan Zine table for many years and alongside my mother helped me fall in love with worlds beyond our own. She was a truly selfless woman and she will be missed.

Live long and prosper, Aunt Peg.

From Ann Wortham:

Fandom has lost a wonderful lady tonight, a longtime attendee of Mediawest and lover and supporter of fanzines and fan fiction. RIP Bev Singer you will be missed.

Years ago when Bev’s daughter Dr Beth Singer was getting married, Bev actually asked me to publish a fanzine in her honor as a wedding gift. Bev did all the work of asking for submissions from people and then I did my usual job of editing and publishing. That was the Stargate zine Gateway to Eternity. Since that time Beth has contributed to my fanzines many times and I’ve published some for her as well.

Bev was a fixture at the big annual convention in Michigan so many fans attended, Mediawest, and I know many on my friends list will remember her.

This is a tough one for me to write. Ginna Willcoxen passed away today. Growing up as a MediaWest child Ginna was my con Mom, and our friendship grew to be much more than just the con. I'm still in shock. I've been trying to find the words all night, and frankly I still don't. I loved her, still love her, she taught me so much, she was the one who taught me what IDIC meant, and what it represents, all while cosplaying as a Romulan. You were what made our Buffy shadowcast a reality, our Halloween and summer parties at your home are among my favorite memories. You were always there if I needed advice, especially when I didn't know I needed advice. Rest in piece my friend. You will never be forgotten.

Live long and prosper. Until we meet again.
