A Death in the Fandom

9 years ago General

I just heard from Draconis that Quasi Skunk

quasiskunk

quasiskunk was killed in a head-on auto accident last night. He was a good friend of ours and I am typing this through tears of grief. I don't know any details about the accident yet. I don't know if there will be anything done for the family. I am still in shock. Cherish your friends and your time with them. You don't know how long you will have them with you.

I don't either. I'm sitting at my keyboard right now trying to wrap my head around it and thinking that I am having some kind of bad daydream.

I just copied your post in one of my own. Quasi was like us - loved aviation.

I know I tell some tall tales for fun sometimes, but I wish this was one of them. No. This is not a joke. I would never joke about something like this. I am quite sad right now.

I remember I used to kid him and say that his FA icon always looked like it had to go pee.

*whimpers* I found out from Tersethra... I don't know what to say....
I was just thinking of him the other day, hoping he would come to Dayton again and be a tour guide at the AF museum...
He knew every nut and bolt on every plane in that museum!

RIP Skunk, you are loved...

OP

Fursuiter

I used to have fun teasing him about his skunk pictures he posted. It was just a few weeks ago I was joking with him. Draconis and I would call and talk with him often when we weren't hanging out at a con somewhere. I'm really sad I didn't get to go to MFF and see him again. We were going to go but plans didn't work out.

I heard about it from 2 different furs on Facebook and Giza was the one that posted a link to it and I'll post it in here and you can add it to your post if you wish: http://www.news-gazette.com/2016-12.....-two-dead.html I didn't know of him, nor he was watched on my FA list, but he will be dearly missed and missed by anyone that knew him well, and finally my condolences goes out to his family (if he had any irl)

OP

Fursuiter

It always saddens me to hear of a loss in the Fandom, but this was especially hard for me and Draconis, too.

DarkWolf36 ~darkwolf36

Writer

9 years ago

I bet. Even though I don't know that many in the fandom that we have lost over the years. Heck I barely knew J Badger. We were suppose to hang out at some point @ AC last year or this year. Btw how hard is it for Draconis?

OP

Fursuiter

9 years ago

They were very close from the old days in the Fandom. Much earlier than myself.

yes. very, very sad. I had no clue my goodbye to him on Monday would be the final one from me.

OP

Fursuiter

9 years ago

Draconis and I were supposed to have gone to MFF, but we couldn't get a dealer den spot. We were going to go anyway, but we had too much going on at the shop. I am really sad we didn't get to go now. He was one of my oldest friends in the Fandom.

Having a hard time with this, we had been planning on hanging out at TFF in March. Very sad.

OP

Fursuiter

9 years ago

Me, too. We would all go eat at Tokyo 1 after each TFF. I remember when he stole the mango off of Draconis' plate. When Draconis came back, he asked what happened to his mango. Quasi said, "That was the BEST manto, ever!." It was a turnaround on what Draconis does to others when he steals off of their plates. The whole group laughed so hard. I really miss him already.

OP

Fursuiter

I loved his dry sense of humor. He was a lot of fun to be around.

ShawnSkunk ~shawnskunk

Hugs. The fandom has lost a great fur. I am sorry for your loss, if there is anything I can do my friend let me know.

OP

Fursuiter

I appreciate it, but I always manage to get by. The offering means a lot to me though.

OP

Thanks, my friend. Your thoughts are appreciated. I was just going back through my gallery and ran across some photos with him in it and got sad again. *sighs*

Sorry this is a bit late, I just got around to checking FA again.

I'm so sorry that you had to suffer another loss this year, man. You've got my support and, as always, don't hesitate to let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

OP

I think I got to meet him once at FWA.

This is indeed very sad news. My condolences to his family.

OP

Fursuiter

He was what I call an honest person in that he didn't play mind games and was straight forward in what he said. He was a person well worth knowing. I wish you had more of a chance to have known him.

Rama posted about it on Twitter or FB which is how I found out. *sigh* I hadn't talked to him in a long time, but I had some fun memories with him. :*(
