Date: Tue, 09 Aug 2022 08:59:38 -0400 From: Chris Mathis <cmathis@brothersgibb.com> Subject: Re: Olivia Newton John has passed away Just to be clear, my surprise about George Takei had nothing to do with LGBTQIA and sometimes Y or his life. I was surprised because the article was mentioning quotes from more notable (ahem) stars, then they mentioned Mr Takei... Other than Star Trek, I do not know what he has done. Probably just my ignorance. On August 8, 2022 10:27:19 PM grant.p.walters@gmail.com wrote: > George Takei and a lot of other LGBTQIA industry icons have been paying > tribute to her today.
