We will never forget those who have gone before us. They helped form the PBCers Organization and will always be in our hearts and greatly missed.
To those I love and those who love me When I am gone, release me, let me be.
You mustn’t tie yourself to me in tears. I thank you for the love you each have shown. But now it’s time I traveled on alone.
So grieve awhile for me if grieve you must then let your grief be comforted with trust.
It’s only for a while that we must part so bless the memories within your heart.
And then, when you must come this way alone, I’ll greet you with a smile and “welcome home”

In Memory of Linie’s beloved son Antony Ryan Moore.
Ryan wasn’t diagnosed with PBC, but he was a very important part of the PBCers Organization. Ryan helped his mom Linie build the first PBC website, promote PBC education and moderate the PBC daily digest. He was our #1 supporter.
Ryan will always be deeply loved and missed.
November 16, 1978 – March 12, 2005
Linda Lynch, Sandra Stoddard and Anne Vertrees were a very important part of the PBCers Organization. From the beginning of our organization, these three lovely ladies gave their time and energy to help PBCers around the world. They worked tirelessly on all of our committees, education and fundraising projects, organizing conferences, publishing PBC newsletters and being a friend to all. To many of us, Anne, Linda and Sandra were loved like sisters and are greatly missed every day. They are true Angels.
PBCers who are no longer with us here on earth, are watching over us from Heaven above.
Most of the PBCers listed below passed from PBC, PBC complications or transplant. We are using the “cirrhosis” ribbon instead of Cholangitis because those who passed away were in cirrhosis stage.
