Just a short note to say how comforting all the stories, thoughts and memories are...my girls (who have met the Bee Gees several times) both raided my closet this morning and wore Bee Gee shirts to school today. They said that lots of kids commented on how sad it was that he had Mo had died. Also, my co-workers made my day abit easier by having cd players on both floors of our office playing Bee Gee music all day today...for me...and several came over to offer their condolences...too bad it takes a tragedy for people to realize how great the Bee Gees are! We have all been blessed by these wonderfully talented people...take care dear Bee Gee friends!

I have to agree with Mary here that all of the stories and sharing have helped make the last couple of days easier to cope with. I too was forunate enough to have met all three brothers on seperate occassions and will always cherish those moments with each of them. Especially the times with Maurice. He could always make the fans laugh and every time I saw him he always had a big smile and a hug for those of us around him. I will miss him. I also cherish each of the friendships that were made possible by the Brothers Gibb. They have brought all of us together through their music and I thank them for doing so.

I watched the whole thing, and it really helped, and hurt so much. Barry and Robin are exactly as I thought they would be. I didn't think it was possible for me to love them more than I do, but after watching their strength, conviction, gratefulness, and the spirit of togetherness, I am touched and am reminded again what makes them so very special. Right now I don't know what I'd do without this list.

I have it on tape. Also I want to say I live on cape cod, Ma. and on channel 7 news this evening the entertainment section did a very nice piece on Maurice and the Beegees, for once they got all praise and nothing negative was said about them.

Yes, that was me writing it... I guess it depends on where I am at the moment. Among friends (like the ML) I am pretty relaxed, joking and open. When it comes to unfamiliar territories, career choices and so on the self esteem is a big problem. I am not even this emotional among friends but then again, not much else means as much to me as the Bee Gees. The passing of Maurice pretty much pulled the rug from under my feet. It was worse than Andy's passing as I at that time heard it after the fact, this time I followed it pretty much from the start and first getting stunned by the news, then getting my hopes up before we got the news of him getting worse and finally waking up to the news on BBC During all that time I still believed that he would pull through this and kept my composure. This was after all Maurice, so active at 53, looking better than he ever had with the worst years behind him. After that, I cracked, I could not hold it back. I like them all equally but I guess I held Maurice a bit higher in regard as he somewhat resembles one of my brothers. Guess that makes me think of my siblings one day not being around, considering there's a 20 year gap between them and myself this will most likely be the case. I will have to see them go. Thankfully we have "long-life" genes on both my father's and mother's side so I expect this won't happen for another 25-30 years. But I digress... The Gibbs are so linked to my pre-teen and teen years, when I didn't have one of the best times in my life and they un-knowingly helped me through it. The death of Maurice is like someone saying that "You no longer need them so were taking them away". I like to hang on to things that mattered this much to me, they struck a core with me and nothing else has ever done that and I still need them and will most likely need them in the future. I would have liked to meet and shake each brother's hand and thank them individually. Sadly I will not be able to meet Mo. Maybe, in the future, I'll get to see his restingplace and leave some flowers or something as my "thank you". I guess he'll be resting close to or nearby his brother and father. It is hard to see ones childhood heroes die. /Ronnie http://www.brothersgibb.com Bee Gees News and Information ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 14 Jan 2003 01:19:18 +0000 From: "Janel Clayton" Subject: Can You Believe This .... "Extra", a entertainment news program, showed about ten-fifteen seconds of the BBC interview with Barry and Robin. Robin looked so distraught, so numb ... I can't really remember the last time I saw Robin without glasses on ... and Barry sounded so tired. I wanted to cry looking at them, suffering so. Seeing them interviewed without Maurice there to crack a joke was so hard. I just wanted to reach through my television, hug them, and remind them of the love millions of people have for them and their brother. I take back my offer of making a donation to the hospital that tried to help our wonderful Mo. I did not know about the recent developments when I made that comment so don't rip into me about it. I made it through "How Deep is Your Love" without crying on the way home from work today ... it is slowly getting easier. Hope it is getting easier for all you too.

I found it so difficult to watch. I think I am still in denial about Maurice. I have wanted to post my feelings but just couldn't until now. This is such a tragedy - for Mo, his family, the entire Gibb family. And it is such a tragedy for all of us. We all truly feel as though we have lost a family member. Mo just gives you that feeling - even if you never met him - just watching him made you feel as though you had known him for years. Such a genuine person. The thoughts we are hearing from Barry, Robin and the family about the care Mo received in the hospital are exactly the thoughts I had myself almost immediately after I heard he was gone. It just didn't seem right that after a cardiac arrest they would still perform surgery. I know Barry will leave no stone unturned to get the facts. Mo had so much more life to live. I send my condolences and prayers to all of the Gibbs and I join all of you in your sorrow. Now we ask "how can you mend a broken heart?" for our hearts are truly broken. Maurice, you will always be with us....your light will always shine within our hearts.

I hope and believe we can all find our individual ways past the pain and disillusion of seeing a precious life so soon lost. I truly wish that Barry and Robin find the answers they need to help them accept this heartbreak - and I pray that the explanations they get from the doctors do not just serve to deepen the tragedy. An untimely passing is one thing - one that might have been prevented is too horrific to contemplate. Take care - Meta From: "Mary Pridham": > Meta - thank you SO much.
