Hence the bristling responses to the post containing only these four words: "never heard of her." You might think we were harsh, but consider how that sounds in context:

A: My best friend died yesterday and I miss him. His name was Joe.
B: Never heard of him.
But how can she be remembered if no one knows what she did? You should be taking every opportunity to tell people about her, rather than getting pissy.
