Oh my gosh - I just heard.   I am so sorry.   I never met Rich, but I did enjoy reading some of his posts and he seemed so happy in life.  Saying a prayer.   :'(

I've been going through the Heath Ledger grieving thread hoping to find the link to the website where we lit candles for him.

Tell him when l come up to him and ask to play the record, l'm gonna say: ''Voulez-vous jouer ce disque?''
'Voulez-vous, will you kiss my dick?'
Will you play my record? One-track mind!

I have lit a candle and am writing here what I wrote on face book. In the words of Proulx herself, I feel awful bad about (Rich) Can't begin to say how bad I feel.

Am just shocked.  Such a sudden tragedy.

My thoughts are with Rich and those he loves and those who love him.

So sorry.  I enjoyed his posts.

I hadn't talked with Rich much, but he's part of our Brokie community and am so saddened by this news.  I've made a call to Silent Unity to include him in their prayers.

{{{{Jeff}}}}  I love you.

I updated my FB with something similar to what you just posted.

Oh, shucks, after all the occasions I've been cranky and given you good reason to dislike me. ...

Thank you about the quote.  I thought my avatar and quote needed an update for today.  I'm glad you like it.

It's a very helpful thought at a time like this.

Thanks so much, Chuck.  I lit a candle and started a group: BBM.

I can't seem to find the group for this candle deal, Meryl. How do I do it? I clicked on "groups" and I saw a group named "BGM" but not "BBM". Maybe it hasn't been loaded in yet. I'll keep checking. Thanks for doing this for us. :-*
