I went to the memorial. There had to have been at least 100 people there. There were photos of him on three signs, a slide show, speeches, songs...it was lovely.

I'm glad you were able to go.

At 1pm, Portland time, I was sitting in my car after work, listening to Hallelujah by Rufus Wainwright and grieving. I sat there and cried for a long time.

I'm glad to hear the memorial service was nice . . . but I still wish Plaid were here with us.

I do too. I found myself wondering if he had any idea that so many people cared so much about him.

I still wish Plaid were here with us.

Me too. This song (I Never Dream You'd Leave In Summer by Stevie Wonder) is sad yet beautiful. This one's for you,Plaidman.

I was cuddling my toddler.

Plaid....Ever since I heard you were gone I've tried so many times to write something but couldn't see the screen through my tears to do so...every time I think of you I start crying...I'm sad because you left us without knowing how truly loved you are...but I have to believe that you are at peace now, happy, and feeling our love for you...RIP my friend

1 p.m. on PDT is 4 EDT (my time.) I was leaving Ollie's with Mom (we'd been out shopping trying to find me new khakis for work today) when I noticed the time on my phone.

I'm glad to hear the memorial service was nice . . . but I still wish Plaid were here with us.

McG sent me a text of the little memorial she has at her place for him right now. I was outside when she sent it to me.

Cuddling my eldest daughter and listening to her sleepy noises, she came into our bed because she had had a nightmare. Rest in peace Plaidman, I wish you were still here. I wish you knew how much everyone loved and appreciated you.

Ironically, it was around 1:00 pm that I visited CS for the first time in probably at least two weeks, and found out the sad news about our friend.

At 1pm I was in the car on my way to get my oil changed, but I was thinking of him.

[Indigo]

I'm so sad to hear this. I didn't know Plaidman all that well, but his posts always made me smile. He will be sorely missed on here. At least we know what happened to him - he didn't just disappear forever.

[Kristev]

Oh, I'm so sorry. He will be missed.

At 1pm PST, I was listening and helping with the blocking of this. It was so appropriate.
