I never had the good fortune to meet or know Tiki-Kate, but she was clearly an exceptional lady, evident from the legacy of her Tiki Central posts and her lasting footprints on the hearts of the TC Ohana who knew her. -Tom

I am impressed and quite touched by your efforts. An exceedingly appropriate gesture for dear Kate. "You're missed around here very much." I will second that. Wish I didn't have to, though. Sigh... midnite

I know it takes a lot of time to assemble posts like that, but I'm very glad you took the time to share that with us. Not only do memories of Kate live on, but hopefully also the kind of passion and dedication she displayed in her life will live on in us as well. Rob

I gave her a birthday toast with a Krakatoa at Trader Sam’s on Saturday. I know she would have loved this place with the combo of Tiki and Disneyland. Sven, Thanks also for taking the time to document and post Tiki Kate’s travels abroad, what a fitting tribute. I am sure she is looking down and smiling. I miss her on TC and regret not having the chance to get to know her better. DC

From the Redondo Beach Pier ~ to Santa Barbara. Some Urban Archeology with Sven ~ Visiting some Tiki friends around town ~ The Bronson Moai. The Royal Hawaiian Motel. The Glenlani Tiki Apartments. The Tonga Hut. Trader Vic's Downtown. Some dinner and drinks ~ Tiki-Kate meets a Tiki Kapu at Tiki-Ti. :wink:

Yeah, that's right Elon, I'm calling you out.

We have traveled with Kate recently and I will have to dig out our adventures with her too. She would probably scold me gently for not posting as much as I used to.

We traded e-mails and PMs on mugs and such. I enjoyed reading her posts. She was an inspiration and I got ideas from her. We had a lot of common interests. She visited my website and she had kind things to say and offered encouragement. My van.

T TikiTacky Member Joined: Nov 23, 2010 Posts: 1319	T TikiTacky Posted posted on Mon, Feb 3, 2014 8:51 PM That's really unfortunate. It looks like the domain didn't get renewed in time and someone else snagged it. They'll almost certainly want a pretty penny to release it again. :( Assuming the web files are still living somewhere, you should be able to just point a different domain at it, such as Viva-Kate.com. I gather Humuhumu isn't really part of the tiki scene anymore (she hasn't posted in over two years). Does she plan to let any other domains expire? Ooga-Mooga is set expire May if next year, and Critiki is set until 2017, although it hasn't worked in ages anyway. It's a shame to see them languish like that.
