Second Life Artist Sabrinaa Nightfire Dies

Sabrinaa Nightfire, known in real life as Debbie Berman, was known in Second Life as an artist, notably for her “Stage 4” inspired by her personal battle with breast cancer. Earlier this week, her struggle with the illness came to an end.

There is no shortage of posts honoring her, by Leland Lee, Rowan Derryth, Apolla Manga, Claus Uriza, Hamlet Au, Bryn Oh, and others. Bryn Oh stated the family would try to arrange for an inworld ceremony to honor her, in addition to her real-life one.

She was fifty-one.
