This is a post to inform the Postcrossing community that unfortunately @AureliaGould is no longer with us. She passed away today. This post is also a tribute to what she has brought to this community.
Maria was an active member of the Greek Postcrossing community. She had written an online article in a popular Greek newspaper, which attracted many new members to the community. She had also reached out to a famous Facebook page, which explained in a Facebook post the concept of postcrossing, bringing even more members to the community.
She also had an account for swaps on instagram and was co-admining the facebook group of the Greek Postcrossing community on facebook.
She will be remembered with love, through the cards she sent and the passion she had for this hobby.
I once exchanged with her cards. it was a really nice encounter. RIP. I wish all she left behind lots of strength and may she stay in our memories forever
I got an official card from her last summer with a lovely message. May she rest in peace.
My thoughts are with her family and with all of you who knew her.
We will miss you, Maria. Although we first “met” less than a year ago, I very much enjoyed your cards and our chats about jazz and cats. You leave behind many friends who remember how much you did to make our world a happier place.
