A sad announcement
It is with a heavy heart that I let you know our moderator Jiffypop has passed away. She has had a history of heart conditions, and apparently passed peacefully in her sleep. She has no more pain, and no more worries.
We will remember her fondly as a person who continually gave selflessly to others. She cared so much about each of us on this forum, and did everything in her power to share her wealth of information, help guide us, build us up when we needed it, and encourage us along our weight loss journey.
Rest in peace, dear Jiffy. Claim your angel wings, darlin'!

I am so sorry to read this.
Though I was not a regular in the forums she moderated, I often read her energetic, common-sense and heartfelt posts with admiration for the woman behind them.
I am sorry for her family and for everyone here who connected with her over the years.

I'm so sorry. Like Saef, I didn't post on the boards she was on most, but I did note her caring and helpful nature. Prayers going out to her family and friends.

I, too, did not interact with her extensively. But she brought so much energy and love to these forums. Claiming her wings, indeed. She will be missed.

I'm so sorry. She was so positive in the face of challenges. I read her posts here with pleasure and, way back, on The Skinny Daily, Juju Ridl's blog.

I'm sorry to hear it as well. I read her posts when I came across them as well, and I also noticed that she had a good energy to her.

Jiffy truly cared about all of us, and always made the effort to help, advise, and support our members for well over a decade. The news of her passing has saddened us all. She will be missed.
