Members we miss-where are they?

I think we all know some members who have just disappeared off the face of the earth. Usually, it is only a couple of the group who I consider my friends. But as I was looking through a list of followers today I realized that there are quite a few of the regulars who came over from Bubblews who no longer seem to be active here any longer.
A few of these members are active on Facebook so I know they are still alive and well but others, I can find no trace of. If you are like me, you are missing and are worried about our mutual friends. I am hoping that by posting this list, we will get confirmation of at least some people that they have just moved on and are fine.
As for me, I see Claudia Kirkland, Sue Hamlin and Ruby Hawk on Facebook.
Claudia Kirkland
Crazyhorselady
Sharon
Ruby Hawk
Elizabeth Wallace
Minisam
Sue Hamlin
Betty Belekis
Anne Johnston
Reine 25
Maria

That is a good idea, I should leave instructions for my daughter, my husband doesn't use a computer.

You can add Jecka to the list. I sent Crazyhorselady a Christmas Card and never heard anything back and sent Jecka a post card a couple months ago without reply. So yes, I am wondering what happened to them. I am also friends with Claudia Kirkland on Facebook. I hope the rest are okay.

I sent Crazy a Christmas card too and didn't get one in return or an email so I am concerned. Jecka is not someone I know so that is how I missed her.

@Courtlynn Yes Claudia is fine as a matter of fact she had her birthday this past week, I guess she is just taking an extended break. I am not sure why she left and I have never asked but I wish she would come back.

I miss claudia. I know her from bubblews, and felt close to her both there and on here once I realized it was her. Have written her a few times, got two responses the first tiem back in sept or oct but nothing the second time in nov or dec.
Sharon is okay but taking a break from what others whove talked to her thru email have said.
I noticed weeks ago Ruby wasn't here abd wrote her on twitter and fb but never got a response.
I get people leaving. Or taking a break. But wish they'd say something first. So we dont worry.

@rebelann She didn't respond to my Christmas card, even with an email and that is what concerns me. But I didn't get it back so I guess that is a good sign.

It's awful not knowing if they are ok. I'm glad that those three are on FB, so we know they are ok. Reine25 has just put a post up, but I don't know about the others. Crazy added to her blog about a couple of months ago, but I haven't heard from her otherwise. Elizabeth Wallace is concentrating on publishing and marketing her book.

I do wonder about many of those you named. Another comes to mind is Abby Greenhill who always posted.

Abby is one I see on Facebook as well. She did a goodbye post saying she was leaving so that is why I didn't include here. But she is doing well.

I just saw Reine yesterday, thought I saw Sue Hamlin last week, and know Elizabeth is busy with her book. There are a few others that just disappeared. Glad you didn't include my name. I haven't been around much due to living the life in Florida. lol

I still get emails from Anne Johnston.
She has to be the busiest senior that I know of!
Between her family, friends and church community, she is a going concern!
When I get an email from her its like reading a great whirlwind story, and I love getting them!

I have seen Maria and Claudia Kirkland posting on Facebook. Elizabeth Wallace explained in her last post why she would have been missing in action. I know that the husband of Ruby Hawk had a serious health problem. Crazyhorselady was upset by some comments that she judged racist and offensive. I do not know about the others.

@BelleStarr They are busy in real life, sometimes it's hard to find a few hours when you work during the day and need to take care of the house when you are back home in the evening.
