Very trying month. Thanks everyone again. We'll be spreading Jana's ashes in the Gulf of Mexico Friday at sunset.

Dave, is there any charity you'd like Medusans to support in honour of your wife?

Fred Cusick- This son of Galway immigrants to Boston was the TV voice of the Boston Bruins and a member Hockey Hall of Fame. During the 60s pushed
to have the Bruins games televised, because "they have a kid named Orr who is going to be very good". Unbeknownest to me, he also had an "Irish Hour"
radio show during the 50's.

Gone to frolick in the autumn mist in a land called Honaleee. That record was the soundtrack to my life at 6, when i was *finally* allowed to use the record player on my own. "Puff" was a movie in my mind, and I used to cry for "Jetplane". Bon voyage, Mary.

Stephen Gately (33) Boyzone singer.

He was a sweet man, this is so sad. Commiserations to his husband Andrew, and to his bandmates, manager and family.

I was never a Boyzone fan, but this is very, very sad news, so young too.

Youngest daughter said she woke up in the morning to hear this news. As a child of the 90s, she said she thought she was having a bad dream. Very sad news. RIP.
