Xenite Memorial: Amazon Elder and gifted bard Jenbob passed away on June 12, 2023. Jen was 55 years old. This sad news didn't reach me until the weekend of the Salute to Xena convention. Many thanks to Bat Morda for letting me know and writing a eulogy to her friend.

Xenite Memorial: Jenbob Amazon Elder and Gifted Bard June 12, 2023 | Australian Xena Information Page | Xena: Warrior Princess Lucy Lawless Renee O'Connor Once upon a time, many, many years ago, when the Xenaverse was young and the fandom was new and naïve, I was invited to join an online, women-only (we later learned your mileage may vary on that), queer-friendly mailing list. I met so many remarkable women. I discovered many incredibly talented writers there. I tried my hand at writing. I made friends. One friend I made was named Jennifer. But the mailing list was lousy with Jennifers, so we insisted that they use nicknames so we could tell them apart – thus Jenbob was born. https://ausxip.com/xena/jenbobeulogy
