I am saddened to inform the tribe that we lost a member to a tragic death, "ascii .." aka Angie Lin passed away July 15th, 2004....

The first time I met Angie I knew she was a unique, beautiful entity.... Her life seemed to be a continuing work of art, with some works of art it takes time to see the beauty, with others beauty is all you can see, Angie's inner and outer beauty was always very apparent. She was like a whirlwind of creativity and color, I am heart broken the piece had to end so soon but I feel very lucky to have caught a few small glimpse of you in motion!

I am very sorry I didnt take more opportunities to enjoy your presence when I could, Thank you for bringing many a smile to me, I can think of very few times when you were around people werent smiling, You will be deeply missed by all those who's lives you touched, but you will never be forgotten!
