Kate Fox

Regretfully, it's to my heartache to report that we've lost a former veteran of the ZDoom community, Kate Fox (Also known as SnowKate709, and Pink Silver), in the early morning of December 19th.
Kate was a brilliant programmer, and has been known to produce some great, interesting content, such as her solo initiatives A_RandomMod, Pokemon DOOM: Titanium, Krazy Kate, and Error: DOOM. She's been known to dabble in source code modding as well, going so far as attempting the ambitious task of rewriting Doom in Python, and has also been a major contributor to Kyle873's DoomRPG. She was not only friendly and helpful to everyone she's been around, but also had a very fun sense of humor, often playing off fellow community veterans. She was also very supportive of a number of our own during their darkest times, and for that we can't thank her enough.
At 3:30AM, the building she was sleeping in caught on fire overnight. Alongside her were numerous computers, forms, paintings and files being stored there. By the time her house mates learned of the situation, she had already passed.
As of this time (9:30PM EST), nobody knows what started the fire, but based on existing information, her loved ones believe she has passed peacefully.
This is not the end of it. Kate was living with another fellow ZDoom community member, BouncyTEM. The residence was his family's home- and he has lost more than just everything. Bouncy has been severely traumatized with the horror that has befallen his family, on top of the loss of his best friend.
Rest in peace, Kaitlyn Fox.
Service details are currently pending, if any. Inquiries about donations to aid Bouncy directly can be made here
