I don't know if this has been posted anywhere on this Forum, but while at work I was perusing Getty Images I came across two photos of Heaths Memorial service Programmes. Here are the links:

'Going out with his boots on.' An odd but strangely uplifting tribute to Heath's filmography and the best role we have not yet seen.

And seeing Marit Allen made me jump, even though I had read here that she died this year.
I agree, I love that the BAFTAs aren't UScentric, and show people from more places.

Thank you, Elle, for YOUR mention. Thank you. :-*
I had not known Ms. Allen had died so tragically this November 2007 ("--in November--"), and in Sydney, Australia. With an aneurysm. (....)
When I saw the BAFTA clip today, it--well, yes, it made me jump, too. A little bit the way Brokeback's first film editor, Geraldine Peroni (remember her?) died in August 2004.
I feel--beholdin'--to people who worked so hard and so well on our movie. So.
To say 'Thank You,' Marit Allen, Brokeback's superb Costume Designer, from the bottom of my heart, for your uncanny choices in picking (with Ang, I'm sure)
Jack's blue and Ennis's tan:
:'(
(gosh--remember Cornelius's amazing essays??)
and for Lureen's red cowboy hat:
;)
Thank you, Marit. We owe you--you'll never know.
xxxx
John
(I hope Marit wins the posthumous Oscar for La Vie en Rose. She deserves more than that.)

It was the same for me. I was focused on the people and names they showed, and suddenly there came Heath, the riding scene from A Knight's Tale. Tears were spilling faster than I could choke them down. :'( It's so wrong to see Heath in the memorial section.

I totally agree Chrissi! It's so wrong! I can't get over it. You see on many pages where they have added the day/year of his death (even Phil had it here on BM in big letters at first - I almost wrote to him asking him to remove it..). He can be found on 'findagrave' (or whatever it's called) now (apparently .. I didn't check). 'Tis not alright! :'(
I think it did sink in now, but it's only been 3 weeks and he's still 'there' somehow. But in a few months tuime, years it will be very real, because he'll never grow older, there will never be any new pictures of him. ..
