Linsam Brand New Member It’s shocking and unbelievable how Maria could have left us so soon. She was one of the sweetest people I have met and was always ready to help when I first started in the industry. She was always in high spirits and so caring to others. I just met her at SiGMA last week so it’s hard to believe that I can never see her or talk to her again... My sincere condolences to Maria’s family and to GPWA. And rest in peace Maria, I will miss you dearly. Lee-Ann Public Member AffiliateINSIDER Maria was a pillar of networking and positivity of our industry and a colleague and someone that I considered a dear friend. She will be sorely missed by many whom she helped, served and connected to help get good business done. It is a very sad day today, especially as we spent time together chatting just last week at SIGMA. I’m just shocked to have received this very sad news. Maria will leave a huge gap in our affiliate community and will be remembered as one of the most influential women in iGaming by me, her colleagues and all her industry friends. She was and will always be remembered as an industry connector, nay … affiliate legend - rest in peace. We are all the better for knowing you. Our deepest condolences to her family, to you her GPWA colleagues and this community of her affiliate friends. onlinegamblers Brand New Member Maria was one of the warmest people I have ever met. So full of laughter and hugs, it was impossible to not love her from the start. Maria was one of the most kind and talented people in this industry, there wasn’t many as passionate as her. I still can’t believe she isn’t with us anymore. I’m grateful that I got to know her and I’m sending my deepest condolences to her loved ones. She spoke very highly of her son and her colleagues at GPWA. May she rest in peace, she will be missed by many ❤️ Condor Affiliates Non-sponsor Affiliate Program Maria was the person who would give energy. No matter what the topic was; she always inspired others to think about solutions for everything. She wanted the best for everyone surrounding her and her GPWA team. And all was done with a bright smile, and genuine interest. And passion. It is sad to speak in past tense about her, as that would not reflect her vibe and her vivant style. Sincere condolences to Maria’s family and to GPWA. Lynn Brand New Member My team and I are in deep shock. We absolutely loved Maria, the kindest, sweetest, most considerate and helpful person we have ever met. She is a real angel in heaven now. The industry will not be the same without her, we loved her so much. SlotVibe Partners Non-sponsor Affiliate Program I saw Maria on Tuesday to exchange gifs with her like we always do at conferences and took yet another pic together... if only I knew it would be for the very last time. She has guided me through this industry with love, kindness and passion. Always an ear to listen and to share ideas and to find a solution to support us all. I am looking at the box of chocolates she gifted me with on Tuesday with such HUGE emotion. I will miss her. She was one of a kind. ElaineGardiner Non-sponsor Affiliate Program I’m devastated by this news. It’s heartwarming to see how many lives she’s touched. Maria was such a sweet soul. When things in life and the industry change so frequently, it’s comforting to have some constants, and one of those were to see Maria’s friendly face at a conference. We first met on this forum and now we say goodbye here.
