I can't speak for the others, of course, but when I first heard the news I went from stunned to despondent to very, very angry (mostly with myself for being a slacker) that we had not finished the story before Rachie had to leave. I voiced those feelings in conference and said that there should be some kind of dedication in NXE.

The rest of the gang took that sentiment even further than I expected. *wg*
