many years he
becomes what I like to call or we like to call an institution I remember um
last January you know
it's been a year since uh Dave's uh massive heart attack which was by the way
not a massive heart
attack um and uh and a reminder it makes me very emotional I hope I get through
this
because Dave and I have been friends for a long time in fact we met years ago
in a stage production uh where he was playing the role of lofty uh in the
production of Queer as Folk
and I remember at the time being moved by the generosity of spirit of the man
