Ceil's daughters have posted a final message on her blog and it includes details for the memorial, where to make contributions and how to reach them. When I spoke to them last night, they mentioned that they'd welcome emails to share at the memorial service from those unable to attend.

>This is truly shocking. Ceil was one of the real bright spots in this - or any - community and I considered her a real friend. I had thought that the cancer was under control but I'd been out of touch with her for 6 months or so.

>Whenever you might have an address for her daughter or any more details I'd appreciate it.

>>I'm saddened to report the death of Ceil Silver (formerly known as Ceil Rosenfeld) on January 3, 2009. Ceil was a former MVP and widely known in the VFP community for her years as co-editor of the Tips and Tricks column in FoxPro Advisor, as well as her long-term involvement with the Westchester chapter of PADD (the Professional Association of Database Developers).

>>There will be a memorial service for her on Thursday, January 8 in Westchester County, NY. I don't yet have all the details, but will add to this thread when I do.
