Dont know how people ever watched Naked and Afraig, but Melanie Rauscher who was on the show passed away.  

I met and got to know Melanie through Slow Pitch Softball here in Prescott.  She was a site supervisor and later a player, while I umpired her games.  She was a fantastic person.  She was taken too early.  My heart, thoughts and prayers go out to her family.  She will be missed by all that had the please to know her.
