Gorbash passed away unexpectedly Tuesday, January 27. Born in Georgia, he moved to Virginia to follow Susan after her graduation from the University of Georgia.
I met Gorby in 2001 and we became fast friends. We enjoyed sharing cigars on the porch and cooking big chickens.

I am grateful for the 8 years we got to share. He will be sorely missed.
Even Trixie and Pickles will miss him. He was the best of kitties.
Such a sweetie. I’ll miss him too. I’ve known him since he was a tiny kitten that liked to attack peoples feet when they slept.
We know you will both miss Gorby, a wonderful cat and friend.
We’ll miss Gorby, too. He was a fantastic kitty!
