Let the marketing and legal gurus figure out how to make it into a fundraiser. Maybe as part of a Twitch TV event.

A hero Jenner named in her honour and the proceeds there of made from sales would be a beautiful memorial for her.
I +1ed this suggestion in my original condolences post but:
In addition to this, PGI could make a few decals to buy for MC and donate the proceeds to cancer charity/research (once decals become available obviously). I wouldn't mind having a brain cancer ribbon decal on my Mech. Or texts like "Get 'em good!" or "For Sarah" for that matter. Just a suggestion.

I started off thinking that a hero or champion jenner in memory of Sarah would be a great idea, However, after reading through the whole thread and seeing "This is a game the kid loved to play. Played to forget about the real world and have some fun with her dad if only for a second. Not a tool to be a constant reminder of the pain." I'm kind of on the fence about the whole idea now as I don't know if it would be her something her father/family would want. I can only imagine what kind of pain I would be in if I lost a child that young as I don't have any. And I can't say that it wouldn't crush me every time I ran into this mech on the field as I was trying to escape reality for a while. It's fairly easy to lose sight of the fact that people are grieving over this right now and the last thing they might want is to be reminded of it repeatedly.
Obviously now would not be the time to inquire about the family's thoughts on this topic but I think it's something that should be considered before it gets a green light. I'm not trying to start an argument or flame anybody, I'm just merely stating my opinion. I would be all for something like this as long as it was something I knew the people it was going to effect were behind the idea as well.

just saying if they do anything, sign me up for a couple.
This is a good idea too. Be sure to make it look nice and pretty if it's a cosmetic item.

If the family does approve a HERO JENNER should be created that carries the config she liked. Also, make the Paint Scheme available for all to buy via MC. Created a "GET EM GOOD" weekend. With rewards. 100% of the proceeds for that Hero Mech and Paint Scheme, plus a portion of all purchases that weekend go to the Cancer group. During the "GET EM GOOD" weekend have it so that anyone who pilots that HERO Mech gets a bonus in XP and C-Bills.

Would LOVE to see PGI do some sort of Fallen Hero Mech with some proceeds going to cancer research or something similar.
I know I would buy and DRIVE a pink Sarah and be damn proud of it!!!
So young...

a tragic horrendous thing to have happen to any family
I agree with MadCat46 statements of course
and I wouldnt mind supporting cancer reasearch through microtransactions
Im just saying you could about put any childs name on a mech and know somewhere some family
is suffering the loss =s
a point Id like to mention personally...I myself have lost a child my only one due to a rare caner I cant even pronounce a 2 year old memory that I myself honor in crafting steel flowers/butterflies/horses whatever I can think of once per year since I am a steelworker by trade, with her name on it.... I play this game and others to keep from dwelling on that pain along with kayaking and other such activities...
I just want to mention the fact that there might be others that may also be so affected by a memory
and in such Im only wanting to bring out that consideration
I really am sorry for your loss and I know that feeling of being unable to change that what we cannot control...and in that first year only word I could cough up was ..bull----.. because it didnt even seem real like your in some unending nightmare unable to help most important life in your life..not enough anger cuss words or tears to change anything like your tied down unable to break your bonds...yes I too was there...and also other families that have gone through this.... but I know my little one...and she would never have let me hear the end of it if I had acted on rashful thinking =s
I even swear sometimes if feels like shes watching dadaz from up above....
Honestly now that I thought of it...I might be at odds with idea of shooting/destroying mech named after a child went home due to cancer....
If this was a game of tickle me elmo barbie car racing with pretty pollyana making Tarzan noises... well...
that might be different
