hauxwell   243 #38 Posted January 16, 2021 I’m sure it was Mort who use to post good and sensible help on the Disability and Carers thread.  RIP Mort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
horribleblob   212 #39 Posted January 17, 2021 I found Mort's presence on Sheffield Forum to be reassuring. Something that went beyond "Admin". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Dardandec   32 #40 Posted January 17, 2021 I can't believe I missed this thread until today. This is really sad news. My condolences to all her friends and relatives. Hopefully she has gone to a better place.  Thank you Mort for keeping us all in check. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

RiffRaff   10 #42 Posted January 19, 2021 Some very touching messages on here. I never had the opportunity to meet Mort, but it's obvious that she was very well liked and, of course, will be missed.  I was always a little intrigued by her avatar! Do any of her fellow mods know the 'meaning' - if any - behind the choice? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

She liked the Bane character in the Batman movie The Dark Knight Rises & she had cats that she was very fond of, so the avatar was a mash up  In case you were wondering where the name Mort comes from, it's short for Morticia from the Addams Family, she always saw herself as tall, thin, elegant & carrying a large axe  I miss her terribly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Iain-F Â Â 0 #48 Posted January 20, 2021 This is very sad news. I knew Mort well while she was living at "No. 10" with cats No-Eyes, Scargill and Snert. Sadly we lost touch in the early 90's. It's a shock to hear of her death. Rest in peace and travel safely old friend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
