OH poor sweer Bernadette! My heart goes out to her- her personal assistant is a nice lady & will be a good support.
Cherish the people you love "folks"- you never know.
May she know peace in her soul.

I just realized that she sang "No One is Alone" at the Gershwin benefit and it made me even more sad for some reason.

Though words at this time are surely of no condolance to her, I hope she finds the strength to deal with everything she is going through and will continue to suffer through because of this tragedy.

Say what you want about Riedel, but this is a lovely article:

Thank you, Margo. She's such a lovely person that this touches all of our hearts, whether we knew them or not.

Riedel, who many blame for Bernadette not taking home for statue #3 for GYPSY, after the nasty things he said during her brief illness, early in prievews; has written one of the nicest and heartfealt articles about the tragedy. Very nice job Michael.

No words can express the extreme sorrow and grief I have felt since I heard this news on Tues. Even 2 days after the fact, the dissapointment and tears still remain. I honestly feel awful. Bernadette has been such a giver of life, hope, and courage for so many people and for something like this to happen to such a wonderful woman is just heart-breaking!

The Broadway Community needs to do something at this time for this tramendous lady in this extreme time. Is there anyone out there who feels the same way? Does anyone have any ideas of what could be done or what any of us can do to express our sympathy, concern, and love other than sending a card?

Is anyone else in extreme shock?

I am so sorry to hear this. I don't even want to imagine what it feels like to experience such a loss.

Last night, a friend and I went to see Hugh Panaro backstage for the last time before he leaves "The Phantom of the Opera." We had a going-away gift for him...a nice donation to Broadway Barks in his name. He asked us if he could give it memory of Bernadette's husband.

Good Lord, my heart just leapt to my throat when I saw this thread title. I thought something else had happened to her.
