Rhoda Strickland, 1969-2006

It is with incredible sadness that I must announce the death of Rhoda, my former fiance and the former First Lady of the Bosque. She was known here on Cellar as LadySycamore. She passed away Monday due to apparent complications from renal failure, aged 37. She had been sick since early 2001.

In spite of everything that happened with us, I still loved Rhoda a great deal, and always will. I hope that she now has the peace that she could never find while on this earth.

Rest in peace...

When I first joined the Cellar I spent quite a while browsing the archives, so Lady Sycamore is a name I recognise.

I'm very sorry to hear of her death at such an early age. My thoughts and sympathy to you and all who are mourning her.

Man, that SUCKS. I had a nice rap going with Lady Syc during the first CMEP - she really liked my picks. She was very frank and genuine and knew how to enjoy life. That hers was taken away is truly unfortunate.

Syc - I am seriously bummed and offer my most sincere condolences. She was a damn good Cellar Dwellar and I think about her whenever I play that CD. She was already missed but now it hurts.

It sucks is what. The times I knew her she was a very nice and genuine person, fighting a battle a person should not have to fight. My sincerest condolences, the world is a little sadder this morning.

What a shame - so young. Her name is all over around here. You have my sympathy.

I remember meeting her at UT's birthday party... Even then it seemed the medical isues were becoming overwhelming.

Syc, I'm so sorry to hear this. Rhoda was always a no-bullshit lady here on The Cellar, and her infrequent but always candid posts were one of the highlights of this place for me early on. She fought a brave battle. Peace to her spirit, man...and comfort to yours.
