Here is a > > Valuable Link < < for this horrible pandemic.

Also, if You'd like to remember someone we have lost to this dreadful disease, feel free to honor their memory here.

The first time I was touched by AIDS was when my dear friend Bob was diagnosed. He went pretty quickly, it felt like to me. But I really think he chose not to tell us until there was no hiding it. Bob called me by my full name, loved my girls like they were his, gave me the color combination for my hair (which I use to this day) and was a total fanatic about The Broadway Musical. I was honored to have been asked to be by his side when he crossed over and again when I sang at his memorial service. He asked for "Somewhere" from West Side Story. Since then, I have lost many friends to AIDS, but none touched me quite like Bob.

I miss You, Roberto Jorge.....<smile>
