#RememberingAimee

Hello Fringedom,

I hope everyone is doing well. I know many of you (along with myself) were completely shocked and saddened to hear of Fringenuity co-founder Aimee Long's sudden passing in November of 2013. 

Aimee was one of the first people that I got to know when I started getting involved in the fandom back in 2012. She was so warm and welcoming that it inspired me to get to know more Fringies and discover what an amazing family the Fringe fandom is.

Aimee loved the heart of Fringe and it showed through the passion she put into the many Twitter campaigns she hosted (along with the other members of Fringenuity) that helped get Fringe a final season. For me personally it is hard not to think about Aimee every time I think about the show because she was an important part of my Fringe experience.

 

This Friday, November 6th I would like for our fandom to honor Aimee by sharing a favorite memory or perhaps a special fan art or Fringe picture with the hashtag #RememberingAimee.


Aimee has left a permanent imprint on our Fringedom that can never be erased so let's do our best to keep her light burning bright!

P. S.  If you are unfamiliar with who Aimee was then I encourage you to read this touching article she wrote about what the show and the fans meant to her: http://fringeofohio.tumblr.com/post/36997081602/my-love-letter-to-fringe-and-the-fandom
