I am saddened beyond expression by the early and untimely death of the lovely Stephen Gately. 33 year of age is unfair and so wrong. Anyone who ever met him or spent time in his gentle and cheeky company (and I was lucky to be one of those, however briefly) will tell you that all of the statements today about how wonderful he was are true and more. It is so awful that I am using the past tense to write about him now and the world is missing a positive presence that complimented it while he was alive.
Let’s get on with it, folks, as we know not the hour, eh? We owe it to those who are departed, especially prematurely, to make every moment count.
