Just found this thread.

Gene, glad to have you here.

Dear Rich,

Yesterday I heard stories of you and your Brokeback Mountain friends in San Francisco for the rodeo in September 2007.  I suppose that was technically the first time we met, but I was only there for the movie for a short time, and you're not clear in my mind until the following February.  I wanted you to know how well you are remembered by generous hearts and that stories about your adventures are still being told, as I imagine it will always be. 

Love,
Lynne

Very hard to believe Mandy.  :'(

Gene, can I just say again, how good it is to see you here, and how lucky Rich was to have you. (And Elizabeth for that matter, she knows where you are if she needs you.)

           Rich:

  I know how dearly you are missed by your dear ones.  I am sure that they are
sorely in need of you daily.  The reason I know this, is I am still so missing you
and the ability to speak to you.  I hope you are well and happy now wherever you
are.  I know you still look on all of us from time to time in that place, wherever.

                                                             I love you dearly son

I received a precious gift in the post today -- a DVD of Rich's life that his partner Gene, I think, put together.  It's a photo montage of Rich's life, from cradle to grave, so to speak, and it was sent to me by my friend and his ex-wife Marcia.  It lasts about 40 minutes, and I only cried for the first 10 or so, and then I laughed through the rest of it. 

Seeing someone who loved life that much was awe-inspiring.  He put the rest of us to shame.

Almost a year.

Not sure what I'm going to do to mark the day.  I'll think of something.

Miss you, big brother.


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!
