MY DEAR FRIEND,

If I were Picasso I would paint a picture, if I were Jessye Norman I would perform a solo to tell the world of the influence you have had on so many. I would tell the world of your ability to light up a dark room just by entering. I would tell of the humor you found even in unfavorable situations. I would tell of the joy that you gave to those you befriended. I shall miss our latenight conversations and the laughter that only you could evoke.

Goodbye, So Long, Until We Meet Again. Love, Giselle Fielder
