"ACTOR - WRITER - PAINTER - COMPOSER - POET
A man of many talents and graces

by his lover-friend-mother-child-wife

Nicky - The master of gentle words
and deeds
You shared so much, gave so much - received
so little, until now when all is yours
fly with joy that I may greet you on the
wings of our friend. The bird of blue
may the fates be kinder in our next
life and take us both together - to be
at long last complete."
