On a related note:

I tried rilly rilly hard to convince her not to leave.. Guess it's a  
good thing (for some people) I failed.  She left via the Chunky Gal  
trail.  :)

I can see why somebody would focus on her.  She's very personable.  
The fact that she was a trail angel probably made her a lot easier to  
track than a thru hiker.
