Abigail Lavine
Abigail Lavine, co-founder of 8-Track Heaven, died on April 1, 1997 at 11:07 a.m. Abbey had been seriously ill since being diagnosed with cancer last fall. She received the best in care during her last months from her husband Scott and died quietly at home. Thank you to everyone who wrote Abbey during this time; she read every message and it always cheered her up to hear from people.	BUST magazine tribute
Abigail, Chip Rowe, and I created 8-track Heaven in 1995, but it was Abbey who really took the ball and ran with it. None of us really knew very much about HTML or web authoring; Abbey went from being a veritable technophobe to a web expert in less than a year. Though we worked together on the site, Abbey ultimately wrote 95% of the HTML for 8-track Heaven. She was a great inspiration to me and all those who bumped into her on the internet. Abbey was a visible presence on the web and contributed so much to people who knew her. She and I originally met through our mutual love for 8-track tapes by way of Russ Forster's fine 'zine 8-track Mind. Thanks to Russ, I had the honor of knowing "the Ab" the last two years of her life.
LINKS OUTTA HERE, the CD and 8-track tape tribute to Abbey, is now available to those interested. Click here for ordering info. LINKS OUTTA HERE contains sound works created in honor of Abigail Lavine by an eclectic array of acclaimed sound artists and musicians. The CD is beautifully packaged in an edition of 1000; metallic gold ink on black canvas by Gary Blodgett and an orginal edition of 1000 prints by Leif Elggren. The 8-track tape is a very limited edition, with identical artwork. All money received will be given to Scott Konzelmann to assist in the loss of an adored companion and to spread a message that may benefit women faced with breast cancer. Thank you again to everyone who has visited 8-Track Heaven since its inception. I will continue to maintain the page and attempt to keep the high quality standards that Abbey set. As many of you know, Abbey had a home page that she shared with her husband Scott: Abbot's Den. Scott plans to keep this site open as a tribute to Abbey. Sincerely, Malcolm Riviera
