You bet.Now that is a true friend.
I misunderstood the original statement (though I still knew nothing of the tale) that someone set his body on fire. I wasn't sure if it was Parsons self immolating or his manager, nor if he was being set on fire by his manager while still alive. All thoughts racing through my creative mind at once.... Thank you for this. I will read it this evening when I have some time to really absorb it.
Here's a photo my son took last night of Cap Rock, the spot where the attempted cremation of Gram occurred. Beautiful spot. My son says the sky was more full of stars than he's ever seen, and he and his girlfriend counted any number of shooting stars.
