~~~~*Moment of Silence*~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

God bless you, John Ritter, for making this world a happier place.
The world lost a great comedian, a wonderful actor and a truly remarkable person. May you find peace.

Funeral Blues W.H. Auden

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead.
Put crepe bows round the white necks of public doves,
Let the traffic policeman wear black cotton gloves.

He was my North, My South, my East and West.
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last forever; I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now: put out every one;
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood;
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

My mom just told me that a few days ago John said he missed his father Tex, and couldn't wait to see him again. I guess he got his wish.

Even my moms crying, and what really upsets me is this morning i was watching TC and i said "I would give anything to meet John Ritter." And now i'll never get the chance.

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE LAUGHS JOHN. YOU TRULY ARE THE KING OF COMEDY!

You will surely be missed, Mr. Ritter. Thanks for all the laughs you gave with Three's Company and 8 Simple Rules For My Teenage Daughter. The world definitely will not be the same without you.

I just heard the news about an hour ago...I am still in shock. He was one of my all-time favorite performers.

RIP John!
