What is going on with Cudachick1968 (Leanna)

Just got this from Dana Price….

This is not an easy post to make.
For those who don't know who I am, not that it matters much, my name is Dana Price. I'm one of the long time Core members who has been here with some other core members from the start of the BOG.
Many of us know or have known Leanna Lynn Johnson for a short time, heard of her via Phoenix Specialties Coatings or like myself have known her for a long time. Me, 1985 was when we first met.
It's with a very heavy heart that I must make this post. Our dear and loved friend / partner has fallen very ill and is being delivered into our lords arms at any moment.
She has been fighting for awhile now and it's now out of our hands. She has bravely fought Cancer which has taken this lovely soul, friend, supporter, care giver, artist partner in crime and a long list of many other things from us. I'm making this post here so that everyone who needs to know, can at the very least know the facts straight from the horses mouth. I would ask that those who wish to send condolences to please not call her shop, or contact via email or really another method at this point so as to retain some level of security, privacy during these upcoming difficult times for the family.
I know there are currently 4 open accounts at the shop and they will be sorted out but I don't think those 4 are BOG members but lay elsewhere.
Do know that her Daughter Mallory Nettleton and Billy Lee are dealing with this in private or as much as possible as I'm sure you can imagine. Both are dealing with what needs to be done at this moment. So please keep them in your prayers for the future and that they are guided through these times to come.
I know we all will deeply miss her. As a long time figure here, in person and life. For those who have been lucky to know her for a long time this will be a deep loss. I myself have no illusions of filling that gap in my life but will forever be thankful for the nearly 39 years since we 1st met. She has brought many smiles and joy to anyone she knew and great pride in many peoples cars and projects of many forms. She has also helped many through fund raisers for those who got hit blind sided. She herself after Hurricane Katrina. And she was there holding the reins when I myself had the world come down. She took the reins many times to raise funds for those in need and always did it with a smile and purpose. She understood that good people need help once and awhile. And she was always the 1st person to step forward. It's just the way she is. Got bless her.
So as we are so near to Thanksgiving, let us all be thankful that we were blessed to have and know Leanna. She is and has always been a true diamond that can not be replaced, but remembered with great love and respect.
There will be things that need to be handled as I'm sure we all understand. At this time I do not know if there will be a service or something else. But I will post here as things get sorted out when the time is right.
But again, please as much as we all want to, please let the family recover and be in peace for now. Her accounts are not being monitored nor texts and such.
I know this is a real shot in the arm for all of us. But I can also tell you that she was never fond of a pity party in any form. Hence why it's all going down as it is. She never wanted people to feel sorry for her, she just wanted everyone to be happy and enjoy life. So lets honor her in doing just that. Our very best to enjoy life and be thankful for friends, family, loved ones, pets, and yes, cats too I guess. ( I had to say that for her)
Feel free to post on this post fun stories, memories, thoughts and such.
And to Leanna Lynn Johnson who may read this from upstairs, thank you for being a friend, soulmate and was always there 24/7. I'm thankful and blessed to walk with you during this time and all time. You are missed and loved. God Speed Red, and Look for Amberdog, I've told her to expect you. She will show you where to go to be with your loved ones. She will stay with you of course until it's time to meet me at our tree.
I love you and miss you.
Dana Price
