I received a call this evening from cat1’s father letting me know that she passed away sometime Sunday, Jan 5 or early Monday the 6th. He found her in her bed and called paramedics. Something an 85 year old father should never have to do.
They are waiting for toxicity reports to come back. They believe it was an accidental overdose of multiple pain medications. Jewish services will be held this week.
I know many of you know cat1 and have been concerned of her absence. She is a wonderful woman who is now without pain and at peace. Cat1 (Tina) from Hollywood, CA, you will be missed. Thank you for your friendship and support ~
Sandi, I wish comfort for you, other friends, and family of Tina as you grieve.. And you are right, Tina has no more pain, or earthly concerns, and will be granted peace and wrapped in love. I did not know her, but sounds like she touched your life in a special way.
Purplebutterfly, it was the same for me. She sent out an e-mail after Christmas and I replied right away, but I never heard from her.
Thanks Sandi for letting us know. At least she is no in no more pain. But she had so much to give and was always concerned for other people.
We will all miss her so very much. Since she joined us here she felt she had a new lease on life. We were all blessed by her presence. We will all miss her.
