SySable SySable, sometimes referred to as "The Father of the Furry Fandom", and one of the founding members of the fandom, has passed away after suffering several strokes and being diagnosed with stage IV liver cancer earlier this month.

Copied, word for word, from TyVulpine's Journal. It's too perfect.

While I never truly knew the guy, I did attend a fair number of his Prancing Skiltaire parties that he generously hosted after the southern california Terrestrial Cafe parties had defaulted to Washington, not to mention CalifurDiego, which was noted as a CaliFur con spin off that loosely connected to Comic Con.
May he forever reside in a Heaven of his making, where his Skiltaires can endlessly prance in fields of green.
