Depends on if she was vaccinated. Yes- drug related; No – Covid

Inevitable, given how she lived her life. Another serious train wreck of a redhead that has finally left the tracks.

I predict “rode hard and put away wet” too many times.

But, in the mid-1980s, I was in my twenties, too. Fortunately, I got off that train and joined the USAF to avoid the trainwreck I glimpsed ahead.

Tawny had a long history of drug problems. I remember seeing her on a rehab TV show some years ago. I did a lot of partying back in the day. I was backstage with some of the best musicians in the world. But, I always loved my horses FIRST and I think that might be the reason I am still around. Rest in peace, Tawny.

She appeared in the Seinfeld episode “Nose job”. She’s also a Jew. NTTAWWT.
