Gateway J., the beloved laptop computer of Joanna J., died suddenly on January 30, 2010. She was only 3 1/2 years old.
Adopted from the local Best Buy store, Gateway J. grew up in a loving home. She was not the fastest and most technically advanced of her peers, but she faithfully tackled every job given to her. Her lifetime accomplishments include record-keeping for growing Avon and EBay businesses, family photo storage, and protection of an extensive recipe collection. Even at the end of a hard workday, Gateway J. was always willing to play a friendly game of Spider Solitaire. It is because of Gateway J. that this blog, Grace In The Home, came into existence.
Gateway J. was often seen as a companion for Joanna J. She loved to travel in a stylish bag and she enjoyed being seen at local Starbucks and Barnes & Noble stores. Her cheery desktop backgrounds always made people feel happy. She loved to entertain her big sister, Grace J., with preschool websites and activities.
Although her last year was spent in poorer health, Gateway J. had no interest in retiring. Her last official duty was publishing the blog article Kindergarten Contemplations.
A brief memorial service was held today in the Geek Squad waiting room, presided over by Gary, Senior Geek Squad Technician. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Gateway Motherboard Research Center.

You are hilarious!!!!!! R.I.P Gateway J!
I would like to offer my condolences to you and your family for your loss of Gateway J. I was not lucky enough to know my niece personally but I have admired her work for the past couple of years. It is sad to see such a young flame extinguish so abruptly but she is in a better place now playing hearts and solitaire with others just like her. I wish you the best in your search to find a suitable companion to fill the void created by this Tragedy.
This is for you, Gateway J. .....0110110100010100101
