Death of a family friend

#1 Post by fuzzywuzzy » Mon Feb 04, 2008 11:09 am

My parents were supposed to have a dinner party this past Saturday evening, however, it was canceled due to the tragic death of their friend's daughter. She was only 48 years old.

Some of you may know her...

I didn't know her or of her, but, 48? That is just so sad.

OMG, that's Amy Vining from General Hospital! What happened???

RIP

ETA -- I stopped watching that show in the early 80's & still recognized her immediately.

She had renal failure.

I read about Shell over the weekend. I am so sorry.

I used to love GH when I was a teenager and couldn't believe that she died. From what I read, GH sort of uncerimoniously dropped her from the show. That's one of the reasons I stopped watching, the show had no respect for the history of the characters or the characters themselves.

Meant to tell you all yesterday...

That the National Enquirer has already contacted her family. :cry:

Here is another place to find Shel's beautiful happy face.

Why would the National Enquirer contact her family, are they looking for dirt?

I hope that they just wanted to report her passing, and what she has been doing since General Hospital.
