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.

Wow we exchanged so many messages throughout the years. I knew her social, philosophical and political views... we shared so much. It just doesn't feel the same without her. She was one of those "one in a million' and I know that sounds trite, banal and cliched (god I'm being repetitive here) but damn, she really was ONE unique individual in a million. I miss her

God I miss her.

I only wish I appreciated her more when she was here.

Well, damn. Frown i haven't been on in a while. My mom was very ill for some time and passed in June, and I haven't had much time for anything else. I'm just reading this. I know she wouldn't want us to be sad, but dammit, I am. She and I spent many evenings chatting about one thing and then another - important things and fluff, but talk, we did. I will very much miss her. Prayers for her family. heart

I've been away for awhile so I am just now seeing this. I actually went looking for Finzz in the forums this evening because I wanted to send her a message but I found this thread instead.

Dear sweet Finzz, I am so sad that I didn't get to chat with you one more time. No matter how dark your day was or what issues you faced, you always put up a brave front and made us laugh. May you rest in peace. Sadwalk

Sorry I repeated this as it should have been deleted. But Kami will never be deleted. We all love her and most of us have known her for many many years.

Godspeed Kami heart
