Sad News & Prayers/Positive Thoughts for Robbie Maitner & Dave Gurland#25

I am still in shock. I just played his cd for a friend recently telling him how if I could be a cabaret singer I would want to be just like David. He was my "facebook buddy" and we had some great laughs. I will miss him so.
At least we know he will be met by some of the great cabaret artists we lost too soon like Nancy LaMott. Just think of the duet they are going to sing!
Rest in Peace.

"Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around."

A really wonderful guy. Don't have much more to say. My heart goes out to Robbie.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

David's family has sent us the following statement to add to our story about him "He is currently in the ICU due to a massive brain hemorrhage. While his passing is imminent, the family is working to honor the wish that he be a strong candidate for organ donation. Many thanks for all the concern. Please lift a glass (preferably gin) in David's honor."

My sympathies to Robbie and to the family, friends and many,many admirers of David Gurland. from RC in Austin, Texas

"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 found this the most touching of all:

"He also loved good press. He would have been thrilled that his death was reported, retracted and reported yet again. He was a big believer in an encore or two."

I pray for healing and comfort for Robbie, Dave's family, and everyone affected by this sudden tragedy.

And no one grew into anything new, we just became the worst of what we were."
