Remembering Andrea

Sad to report that my friend and Keep Calm and Muslim On co-founder, Andrea Annaba, passed away last week.

If you wish to honor her memory, please consider donating to Rabata, a Muslim women’s organization she worked with and that was extremely important to her, or to your local Human Society shelter, as Andrea was a great lover of all creatures furred and feathered.

I know Andrea wanted me to continue working on Keep Calm and Muslim On, and so it definitely will continue, but I’ll be taking a break for a little while.

For Andrea

 Hi everyone. If you've followed the comic for a while, you'll know my friend and co-author, Andrea Annaba, has been dealing with some serious health issues for some time. Things are very bad right now, so please keep her and her family in your prayers. Thank you.
