Wow to be liked and loved by so many...to be such a profound positive influence on so many.... he was blessed to have a charmed life and have the kind of personality that makes men and women adore him and he made the most of his personality to do something positive and significant with his life. The movie is a beautiful tribute to him.He was not a lunatic.. he was a trail blazer. Wish the camera had been closer to the stage for this video..
