Kangaroo Jackie aka FRiend Down Under passed away a year ago this month.

WTH...

That's horrible news. I remember one of her episodes, she melted down on FR in real-time, and several of us tried to talk her off the ledge.

Then, while I was still in Iraq, I got FReepmails from her saying she was engaged, and the pics she sent looked idyllic. I was so happy she turned around like that.

But to hear this? Just damn...

To: Old Sarge; null and void

I think the last meltdown was after her husband died. The timing is about right. I don’t she had the strength to pull out of it, in spite of everyone’s efforts.

She was so happy with him, and even had plans to come to see me from New York, where they were living.

*sigh*

Ditto on the Just Damn.
