Tess Storm

[Kwa Zulu]

With great sadness we announce the passing of one of our own, Tess Storm

She passed from brain cancer at the end of last week surrounded by her close family
Those who knew her, know that she was a kind soul and she will be missed...

May she rest in peace with her husband now. We wish her family and friends strength in these difficult times.

To pay respect to our mother of TGRADs we will hold a cyno vigil at Saturday 2nd of November 21:00 EVE time in the system of J5A-IX (Fountain)
Everyone is invited, friends and foes alike

Tess joined us in 2010, only to leave for a short stint to live in a wormhole, and returned in 2012.
She became our Mentor Coordinator in 2012 and a recruiter shortly after.
Around 2015 Tess became a director in TGRAD and our head recruiter, deciding who would be able to join our corp or not.
She has always done this with tireless effort, selflessness and a good dose of humour

After more then a decade of travelling around New Eden with Tess, it is time to say goodbye. She will not be forgotten

So sorry to hear of the news.
Condolences to Tess' family.

I would have paid my respects in-game if I had a machine I could login on.

Fly Safe amongst the stars, Tess Storm

I was just wondering what Tgrads have been up to and saw this post.

Very sad news. Tess was part of the recruitment process for me when I joined Tgrads in 2014. Lovely person, always helpful.

Someone I still remember after a five year absence from the game.

Best wishes to all the team.

Thank you Faeron, Will and Azul for your kind words, great to see old names come along for this, here and on other platforms

This is very sad and I am very sorry to hear this. I flew with Tess a lot back in... God, I don't even know how long it's been, but I always loved hanging and chatting with her when we were in game.

I literally saw a trailer or some news about the game and thought I'd see how my old corp is doing and this is absolutely a shock. I'm so very saddened by this and hope she's at peace and her family and friends have come to together to heal.

I joined up with Nightmarcher and some other good people as a young buck and I can remember (I think, but don't hold me too it) Tess was part of a fleet I was in and we wound up in a wormhole that took us to some baddie space and she was en fuego scouting and doing her thing.

I'm very very upset about this and wish you all the best. Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying life.

Your buddy Gamst!
