Sir Brian, Thanks for your loving, anecdotal, personal remembrance of this special life force that was Carolyn Cassady. Great lessons for us all.
Your stories affirmed what I always felt about her and her place in the Neal/Jack orbit and beyond. Longevity has indeed it’s place, and w/ Carolyn, it was bestowed on a righteous Lady.
RIP

I loved your tribute. Thanks so much for that!
I love that you were such a part of her life, and kept her company those months near the end. That was great. Thank you, Brother Brian!

YAY!!! It’s Mr H!!!! very cool 🙂
Wonderful tribute to Carolyn. What a remarkable lady.
I will put a little flower outside her Belsize place today…I don’t think the current residents even know who lived there before them…LOL…so I guess they will wonder why… x

Very personal and heartfelt tribute to Carolyn … Really enjoyed all your stories and fond memories… I feel like I know her a little better now… Thank you.
I believe that coming generations will rediscover Carolyn Cassady and honor her memory as a trailblazer of the emerging post-modern era … Your and her relationship will be a heralded chapter in the long full life of a vibrant lady who, as others have said, is loved by many.

Brian,
You had a special place in Carolyn’s heart for you’re support during unfortunate immigration problems. You are a sparkle in the big circle! Love all the connections and family in between!
Carolyn was proud of all her family & you were part of that circle. She was lucky to have you as her friend during the last months.
She’s just a sparkle in the cosmos now, but loved as a human by so many. We’re all lucky to have been in her orbit!

I was on the verge of making it to Carolyn’s memorial, but couldn’t get car repairs done in time. So this memorial of yours has been in my thoughts all weekend. Thanks from all of us who wish they could have been there.
