TG, none of us get out of here alive, and it is not for them that we grieve -- it is for those of us left behind.

My aunt met Stan Winston while writing a book on horror movie makers/writers/costumers (etc.) He was a very personable guy and a blow to Hollywood.

I stopped grieving over the loss of great people, because it saddens us so much. This might sound cliched, but I try to think they've just begun a new journey.

Just seen that on the news. God, what an attractive woman. She must've been something back then.

The loss of Stan is terrible. It's more than the death of a great and talented man, it's quite possibly the death of practical effects, for which he was a great icon. Bless him.

He's already missed
