Triond Writer Dies
Triond Writer Louie Jerome dies.
Triond Writer Louie Jerome (also known as Jan Harper and Lizzie) died on Sunday after a brief illness. She was suffering with cancer and a brain tumour, but kept writing for as long as she could. Her last article here was published in June. This shows her natural tenacity and dedication.
Louie had written literally hundreds of articles here on Triond (more than 500). She was one of the first people I met when I started writing here years ago. We became friends in August, 2007. She was also a TESOL teacher and wrote for a number of other writing/publishing sites. Louie also managed her own blogs.
Louie was a published writer. I was one of the many people who bought and read her work. I have ‘Peter and The Black Dog’ on my bookshelf at home. She was also a self-described psychic and was interested in a variety of other subjects.
You can leave her grandson a message at his blog.
My regards and best wishes go out to her surviving family.

This was a beautiful tribute to a lovely woman. She will definitely be missed. I was always amazed at the different things she was able to write about.

Very good tribute.

Thank you for honouring Louie’s work and her memory with this article, Anne. It’s also good to hear from you again.

Thanks everyone. Please leave your messages at her grandson’s blog. I know the family will appreciate it.

a very nice tribute to a good writer

She was indeed a good friend here. Thanks for sharing this, Anne. I too lost my eldest brother about three weeks ago. It was very sudden, we had no time to say goodbye, so my heart goes out to her family too.

OMG!!!!! I cannot believe a Triond writer has died and that too Louie!!!! No!!! She was a wonderful writer! Triond need to know this and hopefully tribute a blog for her! I’ll suggest that now!

That’s sad, right? Death is one reality that everyone will eventually face but too hard to accept. Imagine her works will live for years, even the next generations will benefit from knowledge she had imparted. This is one sweet thing about being a writer. Our works will live on for years even after we depart from this world.

Thanks for letting us know about this Anne. I had no idea! I did not know her very well, but constantly saw her name when I first started a few years ago here. Sad to hear about her untimely death.

Great Tribute to a fellow Writer! I may have negative feedback about this Site management but what I love about this Site is the close knit Community here who cares for each other.
August 10th, 2010 at 11:41 pm
I am sorry to hear about that. She has contributed to the community and she will be in people’s hearts always.

I didn’t know her personally, but I did know her in the way one knows a semi-famous person, and now I regret not getting to know her better. She’ll be missed.

Thank you for letting us know this. Louie was one of the first to encourage me when I started on Triond.
August 12th, 2010 at 5:05 pm
I never knew her, but this was surely a painful read. May she rest in peace, and I hope her family and friends get the courage to bear this irreparable loss.
August 14th, 2010 at 4:45 pm
I’d like to express my message of sincere condolence to Louie’s family. I never knew her; however this article was moving and as part of Triond’s community I feel I should be close with my thoughts to her relatives. May Louie rest in peace.
August 14th, 2010 at 4:56 pm
I’m new here and didn’t know her but thanks for letting us know. It’s always good to meet another fighter.
August 15th, 2010 at 9:39 am
That was sad. She had written good articles on various topics. She was also clever and detected cheatings of Triond and wrote her last article saying how much her Triond earnings have come down. Then she used to write at her blog – interesting to read. We quite miss an experienced writer.

What a nice tribute. Too bad I never had the chance to interact with her…it seemed she touched a lot of lives here in Triond. Glad that I can still find her articles and read them.
Thanks for the post.

October 20th, 2010 at 8:33 am
This is a shock to me. If I had not been looking over your profile I probably would have never found out. She will be missed by all of us here.

How sad. It is nice knowing she had a passion for writing and this kept her going. May she RIP!
