Thanks for posting this Joseph. For anyone interested, the "Heather Braaten is missing" facebook group is the best bet for info right now it seems.

Local (to Ballard) media has picked it up now.

Unfortunately, Heather Braaten's body was found in the Seattle area on Sunday.

No emoticons, they project a rather different attitude.

I hope her family finds peace and closure in time. This is devastating to hear.

There is a flickr group for remembering Heather:

[s]Also there has been some discussion for naming her signature fig hair after her:[/s]

[s]I think it's a very touching tribute to call that hair element 'Heather hair'[/s]

There is a discussion about this on Heather's memorial group on flickr, and this particular hair was modeled after an afol. She would rather not be brought directly into this conversation and is not comfortable with the part being known in this context. Since this is all about respect it would be a good idea to hold out and see what the community comes up with for a fitting tribute.
