July 10, 20206 yr As those of you who are familiar with the "BGP Thread That Never Was" already know, there were unfortunately some small glitches that occurred as a result of the changeover from the old BGP software format to the current BGP software, and there is a period where the posts made on BGP were not able to be directly copied over to the new site platform. Among the content that was not able to be directly copied was a thread started by longtime BluegrassPreps member, friend, former staffer, and "BGP Ambassador" gold sunrise. Goldie has been a member here on BGP since 2002, and sadly, she was diagnosed with ALS in 2019, as she informed us all in this thread: I have ALS. In mid-June, Goldie started a thread titled "My Last Post," and it's that thread that was unable to be copied over. We were able to save the content/posts from that thread, though, and we wanted to make an effort to re-post all of those here in order for gold sunrise to be able to still read them.
July 10, 20206 yr Author From @gold sunrise: It breaks my heart to post this, but this will be my last post on BGP. My ALS is moving very rapidly making posting very difficult. Gee I wanted to thank everyone and for being a part of such a great community for over ten years along with being a moderator. I have met many people from the site that I consider family. Basketball has always been my passion and I will continue to read and keep up with all the teams and players. I'm sure Randy Parker and mcpapa will keep us all posted on my GRC Cards. I love my BGP family. Prayers and Angels are with you all. Goldie
July 10, 20206 yr Author From @Mustang:So, so sorry to hear this! You have been such a good friend to me and to all of us here at BGP. Sit back, have an Ale 8, and take it a day at a time. Prayers and Angels back at you my friend. Go Cards!!!
July 10, 20206 yr Author From @Tigerpride94:Good luck to you gold sunrise! Wish you the best in dealing with ALS.
July 10, 20206 yr Author From @sportsfan41:I hate to read this. Take care of yourself Goldie and best of luck with everything moving forward.
July 10, 20206 yr Author From @Randy Parker:Man, this makes me so sad. We have had so much fun over the years, and I am going to miss that. I wish you the best in your health battle and will keep you in prayer. GRC never had a better fan. Julius Randle never had a better stalker. And BGP never had a better ambassador. Love ya, goldie!
July 10, 20206 yr Author From @The Professor:This saddens me in so many ways. I’ve known you for years and you’re one of the nicest people on earth! You’re also a great supporter of your school and sports in general, as well as a valuable ambassador to our BGP site. My thoughts are with you. Good luck moving forward Goldie!
July 10, 20206 yr Author From @Miller:Sad to hear this. Wishing you nothing but the best, but most of all, prayers to you, Goldie!!!
July 10, 20206 yr Author From @tcjkbt:You have been a blessing. No one will be able to take your place. I hope some of your class has rubbed off on me. Best of luck in your journey.
July 10, 20206 yr Author From @9068:My thoughts and prayers are with you on your journey! You have always been such a positive person with your posts on this site. A true fan of the GAME as well as GRC. As an old coach I can say you have always been the type of fan we all appreciated.
