His family has been appreciative of the comedy scene's amazing outpouring of love and support, and has been sharing their own thoughts, similar to yours. <BR/><BR/>His brother, very touchingly, said "Take a leap of faith, be relentless, pursue your dreams, call a friend in need, tell your family you love them, travel and make someone laugh."<BR/><BR/>Hope you are doing okay with your loss, too, Atul.Elizabeth McQuernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17758117792901579774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12657434.post-23774477213099390202007-07-24T22:11:00.000-05:002007-07-24T22:11:00.000-05:00Bella,My condolences for the loss of your friend. ...Bella,<BR/><BR/>My condolences for the loss of your friend. The younger the person is, the more wrong it feels. It's hard to be objective about it when it's somebody you care about. As you know, based on my recent experience, such an event in your life will change it for a while if not forever. One thing is for sure though. A person who cared about you and passes away would not want you to be sad for too long or to put your life on hold for very long.<BR/><BR/>Take care. Hope your doing better now.AHPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11024206749392800826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12657434.post-37534201154318425332007-07-22T12:03:00.000-05:002007-07-22T12:03:00.000-05:00Thanks, Dale.

I'm sorry that the Chicago Comedy community lost one of its brighter lights in Pat Brice. <BR/><BR/>I don't know that there is a right time to wait, but in the end we don't move forward unless we do something about it. I'm glad you made it to Chicago. fwiw, I"m not sure there's anything wrong with small towns or small lives unless that's not what you want for yourself.Chanceluckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16829789745697541046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12657434.post-62737687486932402342007-07-20T17:44:00.000-05:002007-07-20T17:44:00.000-05:00Sort of an emotional braindump, now that I look ba...Sort of an emotional braindump, now that I look back on it, but thanks, wonderturtle.Elizabeth McQuernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17758117792901579774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12657434.post-84279832246793744502007-07-20T13:18:00.000-05:002007-07-20T13:18:00.000-05:00Wow.
