I’m sorry - I just now saw your post. Great minds think alike?

I miss ‘Face. I know we all do. :(

:-D

[wardaddy]

I often wonder about Onyx
She was a stalwart here many years
I’m assuming she’s 80 plus given I’m 68

[Allegra]

😂😂🤣🤣

[Allegra]

I think someone was going to try to contact onyx recently. She last posted at Jim’s passing.

[silent_jonny]

Sorry to hear that ... Reading her obituary, she sounds like she would be a good friend.

She'll be included in the next update.

[silent_jonny]

Any word on “Dog”? He hasn’t posted anything here or on FB since 2024, that I can see.

[wardaddy]

Bagster could be very 😁

[Lazamataz]

😂😂

[silent_jonny]

But these names have been precious to me.

I know what you mean.

Sometimes, I'll be scrolling through FR and see that we lost someone ... It can be a gut-punch, and I didn't even know them personally. Just losing a familiar name is painful.

[Allegra]

Lazbert.

[Allegra]

I haven’t heard anything about Dog. I liked his posts. I hope he’s still with us.

[wardaddy]

Thank u

[Lazamataz]

Kinda like Dogbert.

[silent_jonny]

How's this?

I'm not sure about the stars. Her obituary says she was the mother of two veterans, and I think that should be recognized. It also says she was a "military wife", but not if her husband was a veteran as well ...? Anyway, I went with three stars instead of two.

Thanks for remembering ‘Face!

Is there anything that we can do (picture, tribute) to help prepare ‘Face’s place on the new Wall?

[zzeeman]

Thanks much, jonny! I do believe that is correct, but I can’t recall what branch her husband served in...

[Larry Lucido]

I was bummed to see bagster on that list. He could be a curmudgeon but was pretty cool.
