I use the word "friend" loosely but I truly do consider you to be a friend. One of the few. You were always super nonjudgemental of me & super fun to be around. I have a ton of great memories with you. You were the life of any party & people were always immediately attracted to you & your presence. I apologize that I will not be able to attend your services but my heart goes out to your family, children & friends. It was a pleasure to know you, New York. I could always count on you. Salute!
