For Valentina DeMarisco – Skye O’Malley 12/29/1967 – 05/25/2020
I had gotten the pleasure to meet Valentina for the first time in February of 2019 when I first joined Galactic Order. She came across is a woman who loved her family, she loved her doggies and also, she showed so much passion for TLOPO and her beloved guild Galactic Order for which she was co-GM.
Val loved her husband and son and daughter so much. We often shared stories with each other about our sons, as they were quite similar, both gamers amongst other things. And in the last 6 months or so, she had been so excited that she was going to be a Grandma and she spent countless hours preparing for a baby shower, she shared with us all the pictures of all the “ducky” themed things she was working on and had made, this was going to be one lucky baby to have such a wonderful Grandma, I know Val is looking down on her grandson now with so much love in her heart and will be his guardian angel. God bless her family and watch over them.
Val really loved her dogs too, she was always talking about them, and we would always hear in voice chat about if one of them pooped somewhere it was so funny. Her dogs were her babies and she treated them as such.
Val’s other big passion was TLOPO, she loved playing the game, logging in on multiple pirates at all times, so she could be present in all the guilds that she loved. She loved laughing here and having fun, flexing on people and farting on people would make her laugh so hard LOL. She was in several guilds but I got to know her as the beloved Co-Guildmaster of Galactic Order. When I first joined GO you could instantly see that Val was the guild “MOM” (and I think she always will be), she was a respected voice and loving and caring for her guild mates and guild friends. She was always there to help when anyone needed and always made you feel at home. She didn’t take crap from anyone either! She also did so much behind the scenes for the guild, things that helped our guild run smoothly. She was Bootsy’s right hand on so many things. She was in charge of organizing guild events and made this really awesome guild calendar, in our Galactic theme of Black and Bright Green along with a Star Wars themed font, so cool! She also made sure that there was always something to do for everyone! She especially loved putting together some special events for example she loved making up hide and seek games, where you would have to find and flex on her pirate Stinky and she certainly didn’t make it easy! For GO’s 2nd anniversary, she made a GIANT scavenger hunt game where you had to find and flex and sometimes fart on things or have a silly thought bubble above your head on Abassa, Tortuga. That was by far my favourite game! One of the other behind the scenes jobs that Val did was she would organize our officer meetings, where we all as officers meet, and she encouraged us to work as a team to try to problem solve and help our beloved guild run smoothly. She did so many more things, more then I can even mention.
She just loved a good silly joke or meme, and she loved to laugh. Some of us had the pleasure to join her in voice chat on many occasions and her laugh was infectious! I will miss her smile, her good heart, her motherly way and just her presence so much, as will all of Galactic Order and Galactic Guardians and all her other beloved guilds. Val would want us to carry on and take care of each other as a guild family.
Val
you left us way before your time and you are forever in our Galactic hearts. Rest in Peace Pirate Angel.
Having an NPC to represent our beloved Val, or some way to incorporate her into the TLOPO game would be a very worthy tribute to our beloved Val, she poured her heart and soul into this game and if the game could give back by adding a memory of her, how wonderful would that be for all who loved her dearly
I hope you will consider doing this!
Ahh.. So many fun and great memories. may we never forget
