A private funeral service will be held in Vancouver. Public person.....PRIVATE funeral? How very strange. Oh, that's right, I forgot. You can share your celebrity with the world when the money's coming in. But as soon as that stops, he becomes a provate person again. Thank goodness only his family is in mourning.
You Sir are an ass. We loved Anthony very much and while he chose to be a public figure hie family did not. We had a public memorial for his fans but is it so unacceptable that we would wish to have a private ceremony just for us.
So, he collapsed from an "undiagnosed medical condition?" Really now. They're going to have to come up with something just a wee bit more descriptive, like AIDS, a drug overdose, or autoerotic asphyxiation if they expect people to buy this.
We don't expect you to "buy" anything. and could care less what you believe. He was a wonderful person and the world was better with him in it.
