Subject: [SCA-911] Mistress Pia Dragonsaver Killed in House Fire


A house fire swept through a home in Willow, Alaska on Monday, 
December 5, 2005, killing Mistress Pia Dragonsaver, Pel. (Laurie 
McCutcheon).

McCutcheon, 49, was a respected member of the emergency services 
community, a former Mat-Su Borough medic, and ambulance service chief 
for a few years.

Mistress Pia (or Piasa) Dragonsaver was a member of the Order of the 
Pelican, a Baroness of the Court of the West, a member of the Orders 
of the Rose Leaf and the Leaf of Merit, and received a Queen's Cypher 
from HRM Lachlin. Pia also was recognized in Oertha with the 
following: A Companion of the Diamond Willow, membership in the Order 
of the Snowy Owl, and the Oerthan Order of Grace. She served on the 
courts of Kareina and Cedrin as a Lady of the Chamber, and was given 
the Princess' Riband by Sorcha and Esperanza.

"I knew Piasa, although not well, I considered her a friend. I know 
that over the years we didn't see eye to eye on some things, but she 
was a founding member of the Selviergard Trolls, and they were an 
interesting bunch (and I didn't see eye to eye with most of them 
about some things -- I generally liked them and I think vice-versa, 
but ...). I liked her because she stuck by her beliefs, but was 
reasonable most of the time and would listen to the other point of 
view. I won't get all teary eyed, but I am sorry to hear about her 
passing. She was a rock in a group that's had a lot of turmoil, and I 
know she'll be missed. I am glad I got to talk to her a little when I 
went to Anchorage for Kylson's memorial last year. We chatted once in 
awhile in email since -- she read SCA-West although she didn't post 
much. She would sometimes drop me a note off-list and we'd talk about 
whatever the discussion was ... sigh." -- Hirsch von Henford (12/2005)

I am checking with the Baron & Baroness to see if the family needs 
any help. Stay tuned.
