Literally only the best people in the world die like this. When was the last time you heard an investment banker dying of cancer? ...Well, to be fair nobody would actually report on that death because nobody would care, except for his family because they would stand to get a ton of money

Seriously though, if I had to pick the quinessential member of the shroomery it would be A_S. When I first became a member I always had a ton of respect for her because she was probably the only member who was intelligent AND kind. Jesus fuck those two things just don't come together every day, you know?

She was even crazier than me but managed to be 100x better in every way. I honestly have been wondering if my soul died sometime in the last couple years, but this... Fuck, this is just bullshit. My whole body feels heavier

The most sincere condolences to her family. I opened this thread thinking it was going to be one of those random I love you posts to a well deserving living member. Seeing that pin in it made me know something else was up...

So sorry Slothie, I really had a lot of respect for you. And I hope youre happy, wherever you are. We will all likely meet up again when the great grand scheme comes together. I hope this all makes sense then, because it is hard watching people you have feelings for, one way or another, drop out of your life so abruptly, and through such unnecessary means. Maybe it all will have been, in the end.

RiP slothie, :mushroom2::sun::heart:.

Tommi's mom asked me to share this message with the communities that she was a part of. I feel so bad for her family but what a eulogy. I hope people can say half as many nice things about me when I go. Everyone always tries to dig deep for anything nice to say about the deceased, but in this case there's no effort necessary. She really was just an exceptional person who brightened the lives of everyone who knew her.

Quote:

I just want those she knew to see the complete her...
She often only showed others just a small piece of who she was, interacting in different ways with different people, while still being true to who she really was.


Tommi was an inquisitive scientist, brilliant mathematician, and exceptional artist, who battled bravely with the sometimes crappy limitations of her body.
Yet with her extraordinary mind, she was studying to become a Synthetic Biologist, planning to transfer to UC Berkeley in the Fall of 2017.

Tommi wanted to delve into cutting edge DNA and Nano Technologies, with a goal to target deficits in specific areas of the brain. (The Areas that Caused/Contributed to Mental Illness, Depression and Memory Deficits like Alzheimers)

Her dream was to research and develop permanent cures/fixes;
so that those that might be predisposed to, or suffering from debilitating mental impairments, could lead fully independent and productive lives, free from any stigma and/or side effects of costly medications.

She touched many lives not just here at home in Ventura, but across the globe in various online forums.

She tutored struggling math students at Ventura College, and always made time to comfort those dealing with the loneliness of depression and the indecisions in life.

Her quick wit and matter of fact style of conversation with a back at you banter, often gave others a real run for their mind.

Though tough skinned; she was a soft and very old soul, who was a valued friend to so many and She will be truly missed.

She leaves behind her Twin sister: Brittney, Her brother: TC, her Mom, Dad, Aunts, Uncle, Grandmother, Her Papa Richard, and beloved dog Tinzer, and many wonderful friends.
We wish her well on her journey home and into the adventure of the next life.

WE LOVE YOU TOMMI aka: Slothie

Very old soul... Never thought of it that way but that really does describe her pefectly. Its so nice to read something genuine from a family member who actually knew her. Everything about that rings true to me

This is terrible news. I wasnt that close with her. In fact I dont even think Ive ever sent her so much as a :pm:. Still I knew what she was studying and how hard its was for her with her dyslexia, and that was further compounded by her health problems. Shes an inspiration for many in that regard. Ill miss seeing her presence on the boards.

I have just returned from 4 days in the woods. While out there I performed a fire dance for her and placed a memorial stone for her on the cairn.

It still hurts to think about but it did help bring me some closure I was desperately needing because of how fast it was.

Yeah I wasn't aware until after she passed either.  Like someone else said I assumed this thread was just appreciation for her.  I noticed sloth hadn't been posting alot, but that was pretty normal, since alot of us come and go when life gets busy.

Still having a hard time believing what happened.  I suck at death.  I try to be so edgy and nihilistic, but when it comes down to processing that someone I care about is gone my mind just turns to mush.

Take care sister :heart: love ya

I'd assumed the same at first... Then I realized these sorts of threads only pop up when something major happens. I'd hoped it was something good, like her running off to join the peace core or something... That's a pretty big rarity too tho :undecided:

Don't think I've said it (don't think I was ready to say it):


Rest in peace and light, great sloth in the sky :heart:

Been off and on this website for quite awhile.  Amazing how all your plans can change in her case so quickly.  No one avoids the inevitable and it is just a question of when.

I hope she enjoys the crossover, we are eternal.

Holy shit, I thought this was a joke until I read into it further. :sad:
Slothie was one of my favorite shroomerites.
Me and her were planning to to meet up and hang out one day while we were on break from school.

I remember the first time she called me out of the blue in the middle of the night and we talked for hours.
Pretty uncharacteristic of me, because I get anxiety on the phone with people I don't know extremely well; but her personality was so calming and warm that I was totally comfortable just sitting there chatting with her, even when we had nothing to really talk about.

She'll be missed dearly.
:heart:

Son of a bitch :frown: I dont want to be out of line by asking this but did she know she had the tumor or did it just happen one day? Cos if it was the latter then that is scary as hell.

More or less the latter.  She dealt with ongoing health issues that, in retrospect, could in part be attributed to the growth of her brain tumor, but issues which nevertheless did not prevent her from leading a fulfilling and productive life.  The cancer was not diagnosed until the week prior to her passing, after her ability to function normally had been compromised.  It's a strange feeling, on the one hand to hold frustration and anger that her tumor wasn't found earlier when there may have been a chance to fight it; but on the other hand to take comfort in the fact that Slothie was able to live her life on her terms, without a persistent fear of impending demise or the incredible difficulty of dealing with the pain of chemo and radiation therapy.  The sudden nature of her passing is without a doubt shocking and I am terribly sad to know that I will not get to see my friend again or hear her voice and laughter, but the love shown here by so many of our community members, her family and friends, makes it crystal clear that her life was a life well lived, and the fact that she did not have to endure any lengthy suffering is a silver lining along the fringes an otherwise dark cloud.

Love you Slothie, thank you for so many great memories.

I will miss you forever. :heart:

she...was going to be...an academic genius, her body was her vessel for all that drive, how fucked is that? i mean, how readily available fucked. no one should have to go out squeezing for yes. she was looking for cures; most of the world is looking for monies to fund their enterprise.
