Goodbye Florida Stranger

I just learned that Doug Zwit, known to readers of this blog as "Florida Doug," passed away on May 7, 2011. He was the ultimate Amyloidosis Warrior. His obituary is here. I hated to read it. I'm so sorry for Jo Ann and all who loved Doug. I've never met you, Jo Ann, but please know how saddened and sorry I am.

Doug was a stranger yet I felt that in a way he knew Paul better than any of us. Thank you, Doug, for sharing all that you did. Your words mattered to so many of us. Rest in peace.

  1. awww.. I'm so sad to hear this Amy.. What an inspiration Florida Doug was to all who read his Blog.. Thanks for sharing his Blog with us.. Ironically the day he passed was the same day you and I completely forgot about each other as it was the same day Adam turned 7 and day of his party.. You're a legend now Florida Doug even though you were a stranger to us..
