I’ve received so many requests, both in emails and in the comments, asking us to put a face to the name Admin Girl. (For newer readers, Admin Girl was our den mother and leader and administrator at iOwnTheWorld, the site that predated this one. She passed away after a long illness earlier this week.)
Her daughter has heard your requests and has graciously sent us a picture that we can publish.
All these years later, and under sorrowful circumstances, say hello to your friend Admin Girl-
I’m happy to finally be able to put a face to the name. Thank you, Fur.
Thanks for the pic, She was the first person I corresponded with at old site. Anybody remember the daily banners?
🙂
Aw, what a sweetheart. She will be missed.
In my heart and mind I just reached out and gave her a tight hug. God Bless.
She’s so pretty! Thanks for posting!
A beautiful face to go with that voice. Thank her daughter for us, Fur. 🙂
We will know as we are known in the next life. That face matches her voice perfectly. Our loss is heaven’s gain. Thanks for sharing.
What a beautiful person, inside and out.
beautiful woman. what fun your group must have had with her as den mother. please let her daughter know how remarkable her mother was to iotw’s readers.
Beautiful! And such lovely and thoughtful comments from the people who frequent this site. I love it here,
Can we send condolence cards to you to forward them?
Are you going to the funeral?>>>
These are the condolence cards. Her daughter has been here, reading, and choking up.
Her email address is rosietheorangecat@gmail.com

Actually had it right in my mind. Beautiful. Hate to see such a beautiful young life gone though. Rest in peace. You are with God now.
She looks like a nice lady. I know she was good to us iOTWers.
We thought it would bring some closure to everyone if you had a face to go with the famous icon eye.
To her daughter directly: Thank you for this. Your mom was so proud of you and spoke of you often in emails
and phone conversations. Hope the outpouring of love here gives you some comfort.
What a lovely lady; inside and outside. 😢
A lovely person with a sweet soul. God Bless, Admin Girl’s family for sharing such a great photo.
So sad to hear of her passing. My condolences to those who knew her. She was a beauty and of course she was on the right side of politics.
I pray the family finds comfort in knowing how much she is loved by people who never had the pleasure of meeting her. She will be sorely missed.
I saved some email exchanges from Admin Girl. I forgot that I saved them and found them last night. I had shared with her the news my son had qualified to compete in the 2010 World Equestrian Games. She very graciously (and maybe with a little pride in one of her reader’s kid!) posted a congrats to my son in the daily banner. How sweet! She was also very proud of her daughter; we talked a little about the task of searching for colleges for our kids. I wish I could have met her. I feel a void, even having never met her; I can’t imagine the dreadful sorrow people who knew and loved must feel.
She will be missed. 🙁
Stunning. A loss in every way imaginable.
The world was better for her being in it.
She was very beautiful. My thoughts are with her family.
Sunshine eyes. Always beautiful. God keep her.
RIP beautiful woman. Thanks for sharing.
Sweeet. —-/—-\–<@
BigFur's long-stem rose.
God speed, Admin Girl, and hugs to all the family.
I’m a noob around here so I never knew her. But you’ve done a lovely tribute to her.
I also think that BFH didn’t mind so much when the den mother whacked him on the back of the hand with her ruler.
Such a beautiful woman and so kind and SMART. She is already missed by many. BFH, please thank her daughter for sharing this picture, this has meant a lot.
She was absolutely stunning. Rest in peace, Admin Girl.
Very beautiful. Thank you!
Very pretty Lady.She is with God now
and her body is whole and perfect now.Amen
What a beauty! Blessings to her sweet family. ❤️
She so pretty! She has left her mark on all of us. I’m sure she’ll be watching the goings on down here from the next dimension.
God bless, girl. You will be missed.
Pretty as I pictured her. So sad.
Lovely woman!
She is now free from pain and strife.
God speed.
To Admin Girl’s girl,
Thank you for allowing us a peek at your beautiful mother. 🌹 We share your loss and pray that you find comfort. Regretfully, I am an IOTW newb and am only now learning what I have missed. Thanks to this amazing tribute, she is still touching lives and pointing the way. I lost my mom in May and take it from me (a random, nice gal on the internet;)… gratitude washes away sadness. I’m grateful to be a witness to this outpouring of love and respect your mother clearly earned from this community. ((((group hug))))
WHN
May she rest in peace.
Beautiful.
Wow. What a loss.
Thanks for the update and such a tragic loss. Thanks AdminGirl, your are missed. As for her family, God Speed and God Bless..
I am very glad you shared this.
Certainly lovely and sweet.
She looks happy and content in that picture.
Beautiful Lady Patriot.
Gosh. Yet another failure at proving how conservative women are unattractive.
rosietheorangecat@gmail.com — Please take solace in how your mom made a positive impact on so many people across our country. She affected positive change. It’s up to the rest of us to carry that forward now.
The loss is mine, too. Sad that I never got to know her.
🙁
A beautiful face to go with a beautiful voice to go with a beautiful lady. Thank you “rosietheorangecat” for graciously sharing a photo of your lovely mom. You will miss her forever, but with time, the pain scars over a little and you’ll remember all the good things and be able to smile again. I have prayed for you and your family that God gives you peace.
Thank you Fur.
Agree width all of the above.
@rosie Check your email.
BFH TY for providing!
It’s nice to put a face to the emails.
@conservative cowgirl, you reminded me of an email exchange I had with Admin Girl. She knew that I scored student essays and her daughter, I assume it was “rosie”, was facing a big test. She asked if I had any tips for her. I typed up a big, long list of things and emailed it to her. I was thrilled to be able to give back some of the kindness she showed me.
God bless you Admin Girl; you deserve your rest!
And God bless you, “rosie”!
As lovely as I always believed her to be. And what a gracious and generous daughter, to allow us in their world that little bit more.
What a beautiful woman. Thanks for posting Fur, and a very special thanks to Admin Girl’s daughter for allowing us to see what her mom looked like. Gorgeous, inside and out.
My heart breaks … again.
Thanks for sharing. When someone so lovely and intelligent is taken from us yet complete wastes of space are allowed to live on, it can make you wonder just what the Master plan really is. Appreciate and cherish your friends and family while you can for “The bird of time has but little ways to fly and lo the bird is on the wing.”
Thank you for sharing, Admin Girl Jr.
I always knew she was a beautiful lady!
As beautiful as I imagined!
@rosie – thank you for sharing this picture (and your mom) with us. God Bless you and your family during this difficult time.
I seem to remember someone saying she was a singer (perhaps a backup singer) in some rock or pop band. Is my memory correct?
-You tell me. -bfh
Thanks for sharing BFH….Beautiful she was and forever shall be
She looks like a sweetheart.
What she was doing putting up with the likes of us is beyond me.
Hi, Rosie. I have some ability as a song parodist. Here’s a silly little tribute I penned for your mother a long time ago. To the melody of Uptown Girl
Admin Girl
I’ve been posting at her surreal “World”
I’ll bet she never knew a Zonie* guy
I bet the Fur hat never told her why
I’ll make a song to the Admin Girl
I’ve been posting to her surreal “World”
And as far as my sense of humor can
I know that one day she will call me Len
That’s who I am
And when she sees this, she’ll crack a smile
And when she sees this she’ll think of me a while
She’ll see I’m not so dumb
Just because .. I made a song for the
Admin Girl! I’ve been posting at her surreal “World”
And as long as my sense of humor can
I know that one day she will call me Len
That’s who I am
Admin Girl you know I cant afford to buy her pearls
But maybe someday when this song is done
She will learn that I am lots of fun
And when she’s talking she’s sounding so fine
And when she comments she treats me so kind
She’ll see I’m not so dumb .. just because
I spun a song for the ..

*(I’m from Arizona originally … and currently)
@lennie, awesome job! 🖒🖒
What a beautiful young woman Admin Girl is. It is so damn hard to put into words how you feel when someone as dear as Admin Girl leaves us behind. May God’s grace surround her.
Hey Mr. Hat how about pinning this to the top for a few days so everyone gets a chance to see Admin Girl. Thanks. 😉
Thx Mad Jack
And to Fur If you can answer these questions without compromising her identity … Was she ever in a band with a name that I might recognize? Did she ever hit the big time? Was she a lead singer or a back up singer?
I could be coy and leave it vague, leaving he impression that she made it big.
She was in local bands. She actually made more of a name as a reviewer of clubs in the LA area.
That’s all I’ll say.
Thanks Fur and Rosie, for sharing this with us. Praying that the peace of the Almighty is upon all of you.
’nuff said, Fur
She once told me they played gigs as far North as Portland and Seattle, but primarily a Left Coast band.
So very sorry to hear of your loss. I know how important she was to all of you. Take comfort in knowing that she suffers no longer and is resting in the loving arms of the One True God forever.
R.I.P. AdminGirl
