FAREWELL...


































Private services for Farrah Fawcett will be held today at 4:00 PM (Pacific Time) in Los Angeles. Her passing deprives this nation of a lovely lady with tremendous courage. I feel a great sense of sadness, along with millions of others who admired and adored her as I did.

I could not agree more. I loved her and thought that she was a truly amazing woman.

So sad. She was one of my heroes growing up.

English Student: I was annoyed that her story was consigned to the back pages of the newspapers and I just felt that I had to respectfully Blog one last time. :)

She had a long bout with cancer and seemed brave in facing it. Seems sad that her passing was nearly occluded by another celebrity.

Utenzi: Yes. Her story was literally relegated to the back pages of regional newspapers and I said to myself, "Not on my Blog it won't". Now, this Blog of mine is admittedly my little corner of the world. I doubt that The New York Times is woried about me as a formidable competitor. But for me, this gesture of Respect comes from the heart. She is gone and today is a day to remember her. Thanks for stopping by, my friend!

Nice post--she did a lot for women--her role having her not only as beautiful but also as effective as a police officer.

I just posted by review of David Brinkley's memoirs.

DJ DAVY: I still have every Playboy cover she graced! Timeless and Classy and Fun! A sweet person.

Sage: She is said to have embraced her sexy image and I believe she had fun with it. Such an intriguing lady, and what a smile! Her message of Hope for cancer patients will endure forever. For so many reasons...too numerous to possibly name here, we shall miss her!

THAT´S SAD....HOPE ONE DAY VERY SOON THEY WILL FIND A CURE FOR THIS HORRIBLE DISEASE.
BIG HUG MICHAEL!!

Maria: I believe personally that regenerative medicine is out future with Stem Cell. Having lost a Father to Parkinson's, I know this is the key to unlocking so many answers! (((HUGS)))) and xoxoxo! :D)
