In the June 2005 issue of REM Magazine you featured me on the cover with a feature story about my Elizabeth Taylor collection. I was very saddened by Elizabeth Taylor’s recent passing and I was besieged by the media for interviews. I did spots on CBC Radio and TV, CKY-CTV, Global, CITY TV Breakfast TV, CJOB’s Karen Black radio show and articles in the Winnipeg Free Press and Winnipeg Sun. This weeks Winnipeg Real Estate News did a beautiful editorial of two pages on my collection. I can’t believe it!

So I feel it’s only fitting to offer a comment on Elizabeth Taylor that you may want to put in REM.

Elizabeth was a rare and treasured gift to the world. Her incredible beauty, unique and brilliant talent as an actress from 1941 to 2001 is part of her legacy. More important was her devotion, care, concern and compassion for humanity, most notably her work in the area of AIDS research to find a cure. The world has truly lost a special light in the dimness of reality. My condolences go out to her family. I will miss you dear Elizabeth.
