Seattle has lost one of the great ones.

We here at PlantAmnesty are deeply saddened to have to announce the sudden and unexpected death of Cass Turnbull, while vacationing in Hawaii with her husband. She suffered a fatal heart attack after a swim.

She was the power, the energy, the humor and the magic behind PlantAmnesty. We will miss her terribly.

Cass, RIP – you will be MISSED and we will carry on for you, rest assured!
