"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

I was familiar with many of the individuals named. However, I was especially affected by the deaths of Leonard Nimoy and Kyle Jean-Baptiste. I was a fan of Leonard Nimoy's since my childhood, and followed his long career and his humanitarian efforts. Kyle Jean-Baptiste, in contrast to Leonard Nimoy, was just getting started. What can one say about a 21-year-old who dies in a tragic accident? Every time I look at his picture, I want to cry.

As we say in Judaism, may both their memories be a blessing.

Audrey, the Phantom Phanatic, who nonetheless would rather be Jean Valjean, who knew how to make lemonade out of lemons.

For me, the loss of Roger Rees is the saddest. I just saw him on PBS in their program about the Pilgrims, and they dedicated it to his memory.
