I feel really bad because Val is one of the few people who added a balance to this forum.. some people post up and its frustrating to read but she knew her stuff and always stayed objective, from what I can tell she is very intelligent and it was always a sigh of relief to see her set someone straight.

Although I never met her personally I have a great respect for her for the simple fact that.. she is what a lot of people claim or want to be. She isn't the cliche of 'girls can't do this or do that' she did it and you could do nothing but respect that.

This loss I cannot grasp, usually I can accept it but I do not want to. To the family and friends, I am so sorry.
