Looking for a friend of Girlfalldown's

Recommended Posts

Hey,

Girlfalldown (Shannon Dean) passed away recently and someone on dropzone.com gave her a gift. It was a little BASE guy with a BASE number on it. I have it in my possession right now and was hoping to find the person that gave it to her. I would like to keep it, but I feel that the person that gave it to her is more entitled to it than me. If you know who it is or you are that person, please contact me. Thanks!

I don't have it, but if you happen to run into the get-well-carrot I sent her last year, please drop me a PM. Picture attached...

I miss her... :(

Edited to add; the story is that I promised to send Shannon a get-well-card after she was in the hospital, but she misread and responded: "...a carrot? Why would you sent me a get-well-carrot?"

I happily obliged... :)

Maybe her family would like to have it.

I agree, it's usually customary for the family of the deceased to have first dibs on their loved one's possessions. If they don't want it, then do what you want with it.

Hey Krista. If you don't find the person, keep it unless Bob wants it. You're entitled to it more than most so feel good about keeping it.

What's the number on it? That may be helpful.

Shit, how could I forget... :(

Does it have neon-ish green and yellow on it, and little skydiving goggles?

The number may be 1018, although I don't recall writing a number on it.

PMed...

Shannon was awesome!

You know, I feel as blessed as anyone yet Bob to have know Shannon.

We spent a couple hours on the beacon at Eloy and in the DC-3 just talking. The only person besides my wife that I enjoy fixing the world's problems with is AmyVon.

Shannon was truly beautiful. And missed. I was glad to be on the top left of the page with Iwan, who I know loved her too.

On a related note. I'm not sure really how to put this in written word. But...

Bob brought Shannons gear into my store to have me sell. We spent so much time with markers and crayons designing that obnoxious rig. It's really hard for me to post her gear in the classifieds.

I would love, love, love it if one of her friends wants to buy it and fly it and celebrate her.

If anyone knows any of Shannons friends that would want her Wings container, PD Reserve and Katana 107, please PM me. I'll likely post it soon. I'm just hesitating for some reason.

There is also a camera helmet, some BASE PCs and misc stuff.

Wraaaaaaaaaach. This sucks. Still with heavy heart....

I had given the BASE guy to Krista on the condition that if the person who gave it to Shannon wanted it back we would send it to him. Shannon had told me the story but I can't remember who gave it to her. I will look around for the "get-well carrot" because I know I had seen it and heard the story. We were in the process of getting rid of most of our stuff, so I'm not sure it survived, but I will look.

There were a couple of personal boxes that needed to be "audited" before being sent to her family. She would have been mortified at the thought of her Mom going through these things.

God you guys!
I couldn't stop thinking about her at the convention...how many times did I touch your GFD patch Stitch???[:/]

When I lost my best friend two years ago...we had had an agreement we would "take care of each other's ""special posessions"""
damn that man had some odd items....that nobody ever saw. Most amazing collection of porno I've ever seen too....:o

I love to see friends taking care of each other!
It sucks losing them...B|

Janky, you crack me up. I'm sure she would have appreciated inheriting a "facial massager". I think that's how they used to advertise them in the old Sear's catalogue.

I miss Shannon a ton. Just about every day. She always had an encouraging feeling to share and a dead-eye-contact-kiss-on-the-lips.

Argh.

So, out of the apparently 6300 pictures over 1MB, here's some of Shannon people might not have seen.
