Some Sad Lounge News - no OT please

I've been given the OK to post this, and it undoubtly is one of the most difficult posts I've made on this site in the 20 years I've been a member.

But it is with deep regret I announce that Finzz passed away on April 29.

She had been ill for a while and had several hospital stays over the last few months. But in the recent weeks her condition started to worsen and she unfortunately lost her battle.

I spoke with her husband Jason this evening. He is doing as well as expected. He was not a member of the SD community, but said Finzz spoke often of how much she enjoyed it here. He also mentioned how she could walk into a room full of strangers and walk out friends with just about every one of them.

He said in her will she requested any memorial contributions be made to Judge's Park, an animal rescue for small animals. You can find more information about them at https://judgespark.org .

We also discussed that Finzz did not want everyone to be sad about her passing. She loved the beach, Jimmy Buffett, and just having a darn good time. So put on some Buffett, grab a margarita, and toast our friend.

We heart you Finzzy, and we will miss you.

I remember keeping you up all night for a medical test you were worried about. You made me think of you every time I heard jimmy buffet. You shared things with me and hope I was a good friend to you.

This little baby bunny has been hopping and hiding under my plants and bushes in the yard.
When I'm outside it follows me, it's so cute.
I don't know if it's male or female, but I knew right away what the name would be.
She loved little fur balls and would have loved her namesake.

Awww. She would love that. She loved "fluffs" so much. All animals really, but especially the little ones.

I don't login much anymore, so I missed this post. I am truly heartbroken. I have so many fond memories of her from the crazy lounge times years ago. Rest easy beautiful soul.

So that explains why I've been seeing a lot more rabbits and squirrels lately. They're visits from Finzz.
