That's what trolls do. If they don't have anything good to say, they
shout it from the rooftops.

I believe she would have laughed at that.

This is my favourite eulogy, John Cleese at the funeral of Graham
Chapman.

I feel bad for her because it was not her time. She had years of life ahead
of her. Few 81 year olds are as active and spry as she was.

Well put, it's what I thought, too. No way should she be gone
now, she was so vital.

I've been hoping all week that she'd just get better. I
really liked her.

investigation now... not good...

I have had a lot of thoughts about that place all week.

None of them good. I have a lot of questions that I hope the
authorities have, too.

Pete, it is usual when there is a death associated. She suffered cardiac arrest there.

I had no opinion of her until I saw her on Graham Norton (UK
edition). Then I realized she wasn't just a cartoon of herself.

Her time wasn't up. She was killed by a botched medical procedure.

Who or what caused the event string that led her there?

Are you going to testify when it gets to court? Your expert testimony
may be needed.

How do you know it was botched? Simply because she's dead?

Does that include an incompetent doctor killing you?

I'm sorry to hear this. My mom is a big fan of her stuff on QVC. It's
not my style, but mom has bought me many of those bee pins. RIP Joan.

At least she faced that surgery with hope and I think that she never knew her death was imminent.

Read book "Bouncing Back" and see a different and hopeful side of her. Her life was not all roses, but her positive outlook never ran low.

I hope she's in a better place.

I just remembered something about the private Joan. I had a telephone dealing with her once on a business matter - you couldn't miss that voice and I never let on that I knew it was she. She was polite and businesslike, a different facet of her persona.
