In August of 2021, @beeber joined the Hive blockchain. I remember when she came into TheTerminal Discord her first week to ask questions about Hive, wanting to learn the etiquette and workings of the platform. It was delightful talking to her — she asked good questions and absorbed everything like a sponge absorbs water. And her personality was gentle and charming, too! She was quite fun, whether we were discussing the proper way to source photos, or the idiosyncrasies of life.
Beeber lived in Austria, in the southeastern state of Styria. As such, she spoke German as her mother tongue. She was more proficient in English than she gave herself credit for knowing because she was such a humble, down-to-earth person. We occasionally used the translator-bot in our Discord for difficult words, but it wasn't necessary very often. She shared a closeup shot of her keyboard one time with me in DM, to show the keys that are not on my English keyboard, such as the German letter Eszett ß and letters like Ü with the umlaut above.
She had not been on Hive but a couple months when she followed a link in TheTerminal Discord and went to Dreemport Discord. That's where @shadowspub hosts "Pimp Your Post Thursday" (PYPT), the longest-running Discord 'radio show' for Hive posts. Beeber quietly attended a couple of shows to learn how it works before she became brave enough to speak. Even then, she apologized in advance for her lack of skills with English, but we understood every word she said, very clearly. 😁 She had a voice that was both gentle and sweet, and we loved hearing her speak. I'm not sure how many shows she attended before she stopped due to time constraints with other activities, but it was quite a number of shows and we always enjoyed having her in attendance!
Beeber never left TheTerminal Discord, but her visits became less often as she acclimated to using Hive. I saw her appear in LadiesOfHive and other places, but I think she was more active in the Ecency Discord than any other. She really enjoying using Ecency, both on their website and their mobile-app. After spreading her cheer and assistance in the Ecency Discord for a while, she was made a Moderator.
Then, in February 2022, she sent me a DM on Discord. She thought it might be nice to have a special Community Page on Hive where people could share posts about people and animals they've loved and lost. She wondered if I considered it a good idea. I immediately told her it was an excellent idea, and encouraged her to proceed with it! We discussed several possible names for the community, and she finally decided on "Hive Memorial Forest" as the one that best embodied her vision.
Sometime later, I was designing some banners for use promoting the Community and chose a photograph of an angel from Pixabay. Beeber was thrilled with the angel, and remarked that "he" is beautiful. I thought it looked like a female angel. Then, I learned that in German, the generic word for "angel" ("Engel") is presumed to be masculine in gender. Most angels in cemeteries are depicted as female, though, and I thought Beeber's comment that "angels have to be female" was cute. Such was the joy in talking to her. 😊
So, there is definitely another female angel now, and her name is Beeber. 😢 ✌️
Several people have posted to her community since it was founded, but it never gained the great widespread usage for which she hoped, yet she was immensely glad it was there and being used by some. And fittingly, that is where @reiseamateur published notice of Beeber's passing. Thanks to @melinda010100 for sending me a DM on Discord as soon as she found the post, rather than letting me stumble across it some hours later. We are very grateful to her friends @music-nature, @richie8012, and @reiseamateur for alerting us to the passing of this kind and gentle soul. Thank you! 🙏

For a lack of better words, one of the sweetest people I've ever met on the web.
Goodnight, @beeber... See you on the other side 💜
I was heartbroken when I saw @reiseamateur posts. I never spoke to beeber before, but we had a few engagements on chain, and she immediately came across a very likeable person even through the virtual world. She will be missed by many on Hive, more than she can imagine.
RIP my friend ❤️
Your comment is truly heartfelt. Even though we never spoke directly, Beeber's kindness and personality always shone through in her posts and interactions. Her passing is a great loss to all of us. She will always remain in our hearts. RIP Beeber ❤️
Oh this is sad news.
I didn’t know Beeber, nor did I realize she was the founder of the Hive Memorial Forest, but for each of the four loved ones I remembered there, Beeber left the kindest most comforting comments.
And that I definitely noticed and appreciated.
I am so thankful she created a place to remember our most beloved family, friends and companion animals. It is a sad day to lose such a thoughtful and comforting soul.
Love to you and her other friends on Hive.

Beeber was such a down to earth person and one of the nicest people you would ever speak with on chain. Her excitement and interest in new communities was contagious and it was always fun to learn new things about Hive. Beeber was always helpful and friendly to everyone and was always great to héar from her in th é discord or her posts.
Rest in peace Beeber.
Wow, this is very sad news to hear! I was taken aback seeing the topic of your post.
I stumbled upon her a few times when participating in the Ecency weekly topics.
May her kind soul rest in peace
There is no easy goodbye 😔. #EPD @beeber.
@thekittygirl, I'm really sorry to hear about the sad news about @beeber . Losing someone we had good interactions with, even occasionally, can be tough. It’s important to take a moment to remember the positive exchanges and the impact they had. Sometimes, even small interactions can leave a lasting impression.

There is another female angel in heaven, and thanks to Hive her thoughts and memories will continue to exist here on earth.

Dear dear Beeber. May she rest in light <3
Excellent experience with Discord. Thanks for sharing.
Though I don't know her, but reading about her is breaking my heart and making me teary.
May her soul continue to rest in peace 🕊️
My condolences, we can only hope that she's in a better place now.
The is so sad to read. I didn't know Beeber but your words have given me a vivid description of a loving and passionate soul her family, Hive family and the world has lost.
RIP Beeber
That's such sad news @thekittygirl, I occasionally had good interaction with @beeber.
I liked the idea of Hive Memorial Forest, stupidly hardly ever posted there, despite a major loss!
RIP sweet lady❤️
This one definitely hurts big time. The last memory I have of her was when we were on the same team for one of dreemport’s monthly challenges. She was the one who even gave us our team name (G-power) because it happened that we were an all girls team.
She is going to be a really beautiful and lovely angel. I pray her lovely soul rest in peace. ❤️
wow that is incredibly sad, the loss of 'one of us'....
Much strength wished to all who miss her
It's a shocking news for me.
I didn't talk to her personally but I talked with her in public discord server for several reasons. I saw her super active both in Hive and discord server and I never thought to receive such a news. I hope her soul are resting in peace.

😥😥 not a good news from the new year.
May she rest in peace.
Wow, good post, I don't know what to say!
Most younger German speaking people do well in English, I live close to Germany but never knew they have the special letters on their keyboards 😆 I use the ALT number codes if I need them but this is a lot better 😁
R.I.P!
I may not have known you personally, but the way @thekittygirl described your conversation made it feel as though I did. I pray to the Himalayas to grant peace to your soul and embrace you under their eternal protection.
Oh that's so sad. I heard her speak on PYPT sometime ago. May her family be comforted in this time of grief.
Really sad and shocked to know that she's no more..... A few days ago i visited her profile just to know her recent post because i can't see her post in my feed..... I've had a good interaction with her on the hive..... May her soul rest in peace 🥺
This is so sad, I pray for her family and friends to be comforted at this sad moment. May her soul rest in peace
She's a special lady. The only reason I did my Talk Time with Tengo show in the ecency discord was down to beeber and then she made me keep my Matilda character. We would meet at night and call ourselves night owls and why she chose the Silver name in our Silver Bloggers community.
Till we meet again B.
R.I.P. dear @beeber.
I knew her as one of the kindest and most compassionate people, and we chatted a lot on Ecency Discord. She fought hard, but unfortunately, her illness was more potent than all her efforts.
Hive has lost one good person, but I hope she is now among the angels.
memories don't leave like people do they always stay with you . RIP Beeber!!
Hello friend @thekittygirl, what a pleasure to greet you even if it is for this sad reason.
I did not have the pleasure of meeting her but thanks to your description I know she was a special person, wherever she is she will be very happy for your nice words, I wish her to rest in peace.
Beautiful way to say goodbye to a hiver.
Oh man, even when I don't the person being written or spoken about, their actions and interactions with others often tell the tale of who they were.
I am saddened to read about the loss of someone so genuine.
May she rest in peace and watch over us.
Thank you for sharing this <3
