One of her game friend buddy recalled what Snowly chatted days before her death: "hey.. ima doin this part very difficult.. pf realy real tired now, join me". The last message is still on verification process if its accurately translated. The news spread to World of Warcraft community like a wildfire. Week after, one of the players confirmed that they held an online funeral inside the game on town for Snowly after her untimely death.
