Passing of Donna Comstock

[MARS_James]

It is with a heavy heart that I tell Chief Delphi of the passing of my mother and 9 year FIRST mentor, and sponsor Donna Comstock.

While attending Roboticon on Sunday my mother suffered an eruption of an undiagnosed brain anuerysm, and passed last night.

My mother was a spirited member of our community and anyone who has attended a Florida competition since 2007, or Champs in 2007, 2008, 2013 or 2014 may have memories of her. While on M.A.R.S. (1523) my mother was known for initiating the cheer, whistling very loudly and supplying and giving away our signature aliens. With last season being our first on The Children of The Swamp (179) my mother brought her cheering, whistling and a new giveaway in stuffed alligators, as well as supplying pits at the competitions with complimentary bags of candy.

I thank our community for the words of support I have already received and if anyone would like more information feel free to PM me.
