Obituary Jim Fancil
From Bradley Nelson….
A true Tampa Icon passed away today. Jim Fancil, one of the Twat Sisters, got her wings today.
When I first moved to Tampa and was so young. I would see these two crazies, over the top drag queens out all the time. And when I say over the top, I mean “way” over the top. I was actually a little afraid of them. Once I got to know them, I was in love with them both. Their stories were all “make you want to pee in your pants stories”. Not only were they famous here in Tampa Bay, but in Orlando and the Famous PHouse. They had the best humor and wit. And were the best comedy duo ever. Both had hearts of gold. When I worked at Suncoast Resort, I got to hang out a lot with them. And once I finally had my own bar, I was elated to have to them on my stage a few times. Jim had not been doing well for the last couple years and had slowed way down. Today’s surgery was supposed to help him get better. But God had other plans. I know Jim is beside himself to see Marilyn Monroe in heaven. He loved everything about her was literally obsessed. My prayers to his family, and his best friend and other half of the Twat Sisters, Scott Bennett. I LOVE YOU JIM, you will be missed. But your memories will live on. Rest in Piece my friend…

You Just Can Not Make This Up
Good friends of our purchased a home in South Tampa. The seller was also Gay and at the closing table, said that his roommate did not move out. He was also Gay and retired military. He always paid his rent on time and spent most of his time in the garden and his room. Our friends said they would give it a try. John (the renter) and them became good friends right away. John became an important part of their family. We meet John several times and he was always fun and a nice guy. 12 years later John passed away. In the later years John had made our friends his administrator of his estate. John said he had family but they had not spoken in many years. Some things went to charities and the balance of the estate to our friends. It wasn’t a lot. 1 month later the doorbell rang. It was Johns family wanting everything. All those years the family, that John never spoke of, lived 10 blocks away also in South Tampa. You Just Can Not make This Up.
