So sorry for your loss. Prayers lifted for you and your family.

So, so sorry to hear this. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. She was always so knowledgeable on everything "APP STATE" and will truly be missed!!!

My condolences.

Always enjoyed reading your mom's posts. Knowledgeable, helpful.. and her genuine kindness radiated through the screen.

She was a true Mountaineer and will be missed.

My condolences Brian. May all of us Mountaineers surround you and your family with love and support.

I had not seen (read) this post prior until just now. I am truly sick to my stomach upon reading this. I did meet your Mom several times and communicated with her on the board and email as well. About 5 years ago my childhood buddies and I decided to get together and since they were from all over I was trying to think about where we could meet. We had last met in our hometown of Bluefield, WV but it was so depressing to see how our town had deteriorated I didn't want to do that. So I thought, let's get together in Boone and go to an APP game. None of them had ever been there so I contacted your Mom about advice and ideas for lodging, etc., It was a Noon game and she invited the 5 of us to her tailgate where we ate shrimp and grits and french toast and other goodies. I most likely met you there as well. She also gave us 5 tickets for free so my buddies and I made a $100 donation in her name to The Yosef Club. We met her again a year or two later when we got together for another game. Again, she had tickets for us and when I tried to pay her, she just said, "Make a donation to The YOSEF Club", which I did again in her name. She was a wonderful person and will be missed beyond words.
I am so sad right now but hope you and your family come out of this as best as possible. Take Care. WVApp

I'm extremely saddened to pass along that my mother has passed on this afternoon. Thank you to all from App Nation who were behind her in her fight.

Very sad news. I only knew your mom from our message boards but it was for a fairly long time. She helped keep us Florida exiles in touch with all things APP. She will be greatly missed by the entire ASU family. My deepest condolences

My word. Just profoundly saddened tonight. My deepest of condolences.

Very sad news for me and App Nation. Daphne was a very special person and humbly adopted App as her own and worked hard for App. She was a true Mountaineer.

I'm very sad to hear this news, you and your entire family are in our thoughts and prayers.

My deepest of condolences - thinking of you and your family

Biggest App Nation loss for me since Gerald Adams. I met Daphne in 2007 and had the pleasure of serving on the Yosef Advisory Board with her for many years. Few Mountaineers gave their ALL more than she did the past 15-20 years.

App State and society in general lost a great friend, a selfless spirit, and kind heart yesterday. I wish the family peace during this time and THANK YOU for sharing her with us all these years.

So sorry Brian. Your Mother was a wonderful person. Tailgated with her in the old stadium lot. She will be missed!

I never met your mom, but I can tell from the outpouring of condolences that she had a positive impact on many people. Losing a parent is tough stuff. You will be in our prayers.

Condolences to you and your family. While my interactions with Daphne were limited, she was indeed a tremendous supporter of all things Yosef and App! Will miss her posts and presence.

Brian, I am stunned by the news.
I am so sorry for your loss.
I never met your mom but from all the posts that she had, that represented App State and your family, everyone knows you have a special mom... and I don’t say that lightly,as I am #8 of 10 children of a mom who exuded love , just like your mom. You are in my prayers . God bless your family

My sincerest condolences. I did not know your mom, however, the show of support as well as the memories shared says it all. Great lady.

I'm so sorry to hear this news. I never had the pleasure of meeting Daphne in person but always valued her input on this board. Truly a tragic loss. Prayers are with her family and friends.

Brian, I am so sorry for your loss. My heart is sad today. She was such a wonderful lady who I met at App games both home and away. She was such a great App supporter and a great loss to the University. My prayers are for you and your family.

I made a donation today to App Sports in memory or Daphne today. there are quite a few opportunities to give.

Met your mom at one of our pig pickin tailgates…great supporter of all things APP…I’ll think a good thought for your family
