I don't know how many of you knew her, but Zanny Dillson passed away yesterday, September 25 around 5:20 PM. She was a great supporter and promoter of Chattacon as well as other conventions in the area.
She was a great mother in law to me, and a great mom to her 5 children and 4 grandchildren.
She will be missed.

Zanny Dillson passed away September 25, 2009 after a year long battle with lukemia. She was an amazing woman. Her wit and humor were sardonicly funny, often scathingly so, and her love of fun new no bounds. She was charming, engaging, and full of passionate energy for whatever she loved. She was a supremely unique individual, and there will never be another one like her. She loved people and she loved a good time, though often in her own quirky way!
It was Zanny's wish that there would be no funeral held for her. She hated funerals and didn't want people sad and grieving and, (in her words) " wearing drab- ass clothes". Her request was to have a wake in her honor to celebrate her life. She wanted her favorite music played, plenty of spirits and good food, and the love and esteem of those she shared love and laughter with. We are happily honoring Zanny's wish.
Her wake will be held Saturday, October 3, 2009, from 2:00 PM through 9:00PM in the parish hall of St. Catherine's Episcopal Church. St. Catherine's is located at 571 Holt Road, Marietta, GA 30068. Please feel free to come by anytime during the wake. All are welcome.
The family will provide food and beverages but all food donations are welcome and appreciated.

So sorry to hear about this. My friend Terri just called me yesterday to tell me she was sick. Kind of a shock to find out Zanny passed before the phone call.
