Lenore Carvoe | She's been such a strong woman. |
Takara Nimodo | I didn't know her and I don't know how active she was while I've been here but my thoughts are with her family and friends.
"The Light shine on you, and the Creator shelter you. The last embrace of the mother welcome you home." |
Serinia Edoras | I will look to the mourning place on the site to share my own memories of Padra and my incredible sense of loss.
Here I will add only a short note that following the information to be shared regarding the memorial services I will be assisting with lodging/hotel suggestions as needed. I will share more as logistics are solidified. |
Kariada Kunai | She will be missed. My prayers are with Tricia and her family. |
Skaya Tristian | She was an amazing woman.. She will be missed but may she find peace and happiness without pain now that she has gone home.. It's sad news to hear.
My thoughts and prayers are with her and her family.

Eleyan Teyal Al'Landerin | It was very, very quick, which I suppose is something to take comfort in. This time last week she was still mobile, updating her face book status and making plans for the future. It happened so quickly there was no time to mount an effort, but it is not such a bad thing that it was not drawn out. She did know how much she meant to all of us. I'm sure of it.
I still wish I could have told her one more time. At this point, I am sure the cards sent will comfort her family. We will be waiting for service details, and will be sending flowers from all of us here. I know those of us who can attend will be, and we will make sure to tell her family how much she meant to so many of us. |
Azi al'Thone | I didn't have much of a chance to know her... but I had the pleasure of meeting her in April, and it indeed was a pleasure. She seemed happy and joyful despite her struggle, and I can only attest to everything already said, even in the short time that I spent with her.
Laura's and my deepest sympathies to her family, and all of her friends here. |
Liathiana e'Kellenit | My heart and prayers go out to her family and loved ones during this difficult time. |
Aerien Millefiori | She was my Shendar, and I was so proud to be able to call her my friend. Padra was the absolute epitome of Aes Sedai and all that we strive for here.
I don't have the right words now to express everything I want to say |
Jeffan Caliarthan | I'll be thinking of her and her family. From the very little I remember of her (and I had to dig up her avatar to remember even that, unfortunately), she was always a very positive person, and that's something to value in life, and be proud of. I wish her and her family the best, and I hope that she's found peace. |

As Aintza said, I didn't know her greatly but was amazed by her strength and compassion. She will be missed. |
Vivianna L'antreau | I love you Padra. |
Willow al'Meana | I am truly in shock... I didn't know her very long... but the little time I did... I am honoured to have had... she truly was an amazing woman and someone I looked up to as a Sister in our Ajah.
Happy Home-going Sister, I know I speak for our Ajah and community when I say that you will be greatly missed. |
Melana al'Caireira | |
Leilwyn al'Raen | Can't think of the right words to say... |
Ciaran al'Trystan | It says such wonderful things about her that her passing affects our community this way.
Sometimes it's best to let others speak for us: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btOC3pk-tFo I don't remember how to do the text link thing... |

Love and miss you, Padra. <3 |

My thoughts and condolences for her family.. |
Atreyu Silverstar | May the hand of the Creator shelter you, and the last embrace of the Mother welcome you home Padra Sedai. |
Arie Davion | I posted it on FB, but... Tricia, I wish I could have met you. You seemed such a beautiful person and welcoming when I visited the Blue's. "Lyet aes sedai sagain. Lyet. Tai'Shan'Mael mahdi isain logoth calichniye. Cuerbiyari an calichniye'drelle sagain. Ji'moridin hei. Hei Mashiara. Hei." May the Light of the world guide you home, as you have guided those you touched towards the Light. |
Locus Sarania | I may not have known you but from what I see you will be missed. Happy Home Going. |
Lireina Sedai | I'm stunned.
My heart goes out to everyone who knew and loved her- she was a very friendly and warm person, and a wonderful presence here in Tar Valon. "On sleepless roads, the sleepless go... may angels lead you in." Happy Home-Going, Padra. |
Kiana a'Jadein | |
Miriya ay'Anne | Light guide you home, Sister.
And my thoughts to you, and your family. May they find comfort. |
Manora al'Sara | Padra was an amazing woman, whom I am honoured to have been able to call sister. My thoughts are with all her family and friends. |
Alessandra Estelle | She was one of the nicest people I ever knew |
Ebona din Casei | I'm shocked, I really didn't think it would happen this quickly. I didn't know Padra well, but this is affecting me more than I thought it would. My thoughts go out to her friends and family. May she be remembered for the life she lived, the people she touched, the difference she made. I honor her memory.
Good bye, Sister. |
Estalia Walburga | |
Ben al'Den | I had no idea any of this was going on (tells you how often I check facebook |
Yelenia Hylraren | I'm going to miss her very, very much. I was honored to work with her, to call her Sister, and to call her friend. |
Katarianna | I've had the hardest time explaining to my coworkers why I'm crying. How do you tell them that someone you've seen in person a dozen times and who lived across the US had such an impact on your life? How do you explain that they were so special to you and not sound like an idiot?
May the Creator (both of them) shelter you in the palm of their hand. You will be truly missed. |
Adriana al'Tere | The world's a little darker without her here.
Happy home-going, Padra. |
Keisha al'Benn | Happy Home Going Sister |
Melisande Arneil | My condolences to Padra's family...she will be missed here |
Azrael al'Letifer | Tricia was one of the kindest, most vibrant people I've had the privilege to know. Losing her is truly a great loss for those of us who had the chance to know her as well as a loss for those that never had the opportunity to know her. |
Tallan | Oh no.
I never spoke to her privately, and we never interacted much on the site, but all my thoughts with those who knew and loved her.
My thoughts and prayer go out to her family and friends.
My heartfelt wishes go out to her spirit, and her family, that all may find peace. May the last embrace of the mother welcome you home. by Vallen Draevis My thoughts and prayers go to her family and friends. by Jadira Paerael Padra I missed the chance to meet you in September, I am saddened by this. I looked up to you and was inspired by your courage and kindness. I am more than proud to call her my sister and friend. words do no justice for the way i feel right now. My thoughts and prayers are with her family, and those of us who will miss her. Happy Home-Going Padra, love. May your sunshine and light in this world always shine from above.
I am very blessed I had the chance of meeting Tricia, and it breaks my heart knowing others won't have the chance to meet the truly amazing woman that she was.
My thoughts and prayers to the family in this time of need!!!
Your Blues miss you, Tricia.
by Osaka Happy home-going, Sister. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. by Kiante Draktis I did not get the chance to know her, regrettably. I honor her though, as an Aes Sedai, and from what I gather, a great woman. I have every hope that I will meet her one day, but until then, I'm sure she will be sorely missed. My condolences to her family and all her friends. Happy home-going Padra Sedai.
I have a stuffed jackalope that Padra, out of the blue, bought for me at 5th Anni. She found it amusing my being the Brown rebel with a jackalope pet instead of a dust bunny, and when she saw him she thought of me. I woke up one morning to this flying fluffy thing hitting me in the head, and ever since Graham has traveled across multiple continents and countries with me, to Tower parties and every time I've moved. He sits here next to me now, and I shall hug this fluffy toy and remember a friend who was one of the most beautiful souls I've ever been blessed to meet. Goodbye, my sister. Happy home-going, and keep the kettle on for the day we meet once more.
All my best wishes for her and her family!
Happy home going Padra.
Happy Home-going, Padra Sedai.
She was a great Aes Sedai and an amazing woman, friend and sister. May she live on in our hearts and our minds forever as a scientific fact that I find comfort in times of loss like this is that all that she is or was still lives on in the universe. Every atom that made up every fibre of her being is still with us in the world and always will be, weither it be in the ground, the air or the seas. May she be remembered by us all as a sister, not just in title but in truth. As part of our family she will always be our sister and though she's gone she will always be Padra Sedai of the Blue Ajah. May her name live on with her memory in every place of honor. Goodbye Padra We love you.
by Guest My thoughts go out to her friends and family. Happy home-going Padra. by Aran Cherubim I'm afraid I hadn't seen this before now. My thoughts and prayers go to her family and closest.
The Light shine on you, Padra Sedai, and the Creator shelter you. The last embrace of the Mother welcome you home.
"The Light shine on you, and the Creator shelter you. The last embrace of the mother welcome you home."
Happy home-going, Padra Sedai.
My heart and thoughts go out to her friends and family.
A forever sister
Your bravery and strength, inspiration and compassion for others will never be forgotten. You will always have a special place in my heart. I wish you peace. Fly free and in peace my beloved heart sister
You will be missed, Tricia. May the hand of the Creator shelter you, and the last embrace of the Mother welcome you home.
May the hand of the Creator shelter you, and the last embrace of the Mother welcome you home.
by Hilwa Katir I got to know Padra while Guesting with the Blues and when I read your post on facebook, it took a moment for me to "deal". I didn't know her very long but again I am reminded of how invested I am emotionally to those of us who belong in this MY TarValon.Net family. قدوس الله، قدوس القوي، قدوس الذي لا يموت ارحمنا
O Lord of spirits and of all flesh, Who has trampled down Death and overthrown the Devil, and given life unto Your world, give, eternal rest to the soul of Your departed servant, in a place of brightness, in a place of verdure, in a place of repose, from whence all pain, sorrow, and sighing, have fled away. Pardon every transgression which may have been committed, whether by word or deed or thought. For there is no one who lives and does not commit a sin. You only are without sin, Your righteousness is everlasting, and Your word is the Truth. For You are the Resurrection, and the Life, and the repose of Your departed servant, O Christ our God, and unto You we ascribe glory, together with eternal the Father, and Your Most Holy, and Good, and Life-giving Spirit, now and forever, and for ages to come." Amen "May our gracious and merciful Lord, who rose from the dead, Christ, our True God, through the intercessions of His Holy Mother and of all the Saints, establish the soul of His departed servant in the mansions of the righteous; give rest in the bosom of Abraham, and number his soul among the just, and have mercy upon us and save us". May your Memory Padra (Tricia) Sedai be ETERNAL!!
by Alondrian This is indeed very sad, and I feel bad I did not see this sooner. My thoughts and prayers are with Padra and her family. My the light embrace you always.
I did not know Padra well at all, but I do know how it feels to loose someone to his horrible disease. I know my words probably don't make your heart any lighter, but I do hope they provide a cushion of sorts, to help protect you as you grieve. May she always rest in peace, with the knowledge that she is missed by the ones who love her.
We all must wake from the dream one day.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Give rest, O Christ, to thy servant with thy saints, where sorrow and pain are no more, neither sighing, but life everlasting. Into thy hands, O merciful Savior, we commend thy servant Tricia. Acknowledge, we humbly beseech thee, a sheep of thine own fold, a lamb of thine own flock, a sinner of thine own redeeming. Receieve her unto the arms of thy mercy, into the blessed rest of everlasting peace, and into the glorious compaby of the saints in light.
I knew Tricia was a good person, anyone who spent more than ten minutes with her should know that, but I never really got to find out first hand just how great a person she was, and now I never can. I'm sorry I didn't find the time, Tricia. May the chance come again, one day.
Now she dons a celestial body and continues to higher enlightenment. A Soul Complete. With great affection and wonderful memories I bid her farewell.
Marrow Gaidin, I feel your pain. It's very easy to get caught up in life..
Padra's family and friends are in my thoughts.
May you always shine in the light in whatever world your in Padra Sedai.
...thanks Padra
<3
I remember well when she told us about her having such a nasty cancer, she was so decided to fight it. I often thought about her and prayed she would succeed. Her courage and strength in this fight are an example for us all
"May the Light shine upon your soul Padra Sedai"
Always sung at a passing in my family: Tis the last rose of summer, Left blooming alone, All her lovely companions Are faded and gone. No flow'r of her kindred No rosebud is nigh To reflect back her blushes, Or give sigh for sigh. I'll not leave thee, thou lone one, To pine on the stem, Since the lovely are sleeping, Go, sleep thou with them Thus kindly I'll scatter Thy leaves o'er the bed, Where thy mates of the garden Lie scentless and dead. So soon may I follow When friendships decay; And from love's shining circle The gems drop away When true hearts lie wither'd And fond ones are flow'n Oh! Who would inhabit This bleak world alone?
Love, Me
To Padra Sedai's family, you have my sincerest condolences on your loss. She is in a better place now, with no more pain, looking down on you.
You will never be forgotton, my dear friend. Your name will be around for a very, very long time. I wish I had known in time to tell you. But regardless, it will bring comfort to those who love you. You would have squealed and laughed. I love and miss you so much. |
