Firefly Vigil for Litlc's brother in law...

From RainyRain :

"Placed a full firefly jar at Litlc's house - her brother-in-law, a guardsman, was in a plane crash fighting fires in SD, he is in hospital now with severe burns, unfortunately his fellows didn't make it :( "

We're also attempting to help her gain the last street img badge. Please stop by if you can. 

Her home street if anyone wants to contribute:

Thanks everyone.

  • I got there right at the new day :( but I wrote a note and dropped it since the mailbox filled up some time ago, although the street is so covered by firefly jars and pretty herbs that it may be covered up for some time to come. What a wonderful outpouring of love and friendship!

    I'm so glad to see how wonderful the Glitch community is!

  • I wish butlers could keep longer lists of names, because my guess is that about a hundred people came to harvest and contribute to the street.  At the beginning I was afraid that the badge wouldn't happen, but it did, and then some.  Thanks so much to everyone who helped out... it was terrific!  If there's a shortage of fireflies in the rest of Ur, it's because they're all keeping litlc company tonight.

  • I saw RainyRain's post on the feed from glitch HQ hill at a pizza shop, and when I glanced up at the TV, saw the plane crash article. I'm not dropping off firefly jars...I'm dropping off good thoughts and fresh bacon.

  • There will be a news special on WRAL News, which is sort of our state news channel, on this subject at 5 PM EST. For those in North Carolina, that's channel 5. But you all can watch it online if you're not in the area. Glad to see the Litlc is doing better.
