I have saddest regrets to inform you that the poster, supporter, and friend of Andreas here named Para has passed away from a car crash.
I come to you now to let you know that Para was in process of making a CD in remembrance of Andrea. I know this because I too was a part of this. There specific plans on how to distribute this CD. When he had the crash he was in mobility to do a few more tracks and to start picking what he wanted on this tribute. He had talked to me about getting ahold of Chris I think it was for a possible special inside cover for the CD. He also wanted input on how much was left to raise for the memorial for his friend Andrea. I know he would want this project to do what he intended to do. He was in a hurry to finish because of a special release date of December 20th. As a friend and knowing this was a project of love for his friend I will be trying to meet this magic date. However not knowing exactly what he wanted it may take a little more time. I will get an email account up so anyone that may want to do condolences may do so directly. Also, any questions may be directed there as well. I do not mean to take up space here but I would think he would want all here to know. If it is OK with all here I will update information as I come accross about the CD.
"As long as I remain breathing Andreas spirit will live inside of me. And I hope that after I stop breathing we will talk again. Until then I will miss her."
I'm shocked and sad about these news. Only a few days ago I began to wonder why there were no postings from Para anymore. Now I know.
He seemed to know Andrea much better than I did and his words revealed both sensibility and intelligence. Therefore I intended to meet him and talk with him about Andrea one day when he would tell me who he is and where he lives. But even Monica Sweetheart couldn't figure out who was hiding behind the pseudonym "Para". In any case a rare and precious person, I'm sure.
To FRIEND: of course any updates are welcome. Thanks.
I was very upset to hear this. Once again, the year ends in a tragic manner. One wonders why fate can be so harsh? Below is my posting after I saw the sad information posted up by Adam at the CSS Forum in the special Lea De Mae Forum (kindly made for us by Martin Bucek, the CSS Administrator)
I have just seen the postings above - and I am shocked and wonder how much more suffering people have to undergo to see their loved ones and dear friends receiving such ill fate for their good deeds.
I am so sorry to hear this. Para (or Phil) used to write to me earlier in the year after we lost our lovely Lea De Mae on 9th December last year.
I have some nice words of Para's which I will find showing the wonderful and kindly nature of Para.
Please pass on my deepest condolences to Para's family and close friends.
I believe Para lived in America.
Once again, I find myself at the keyboard with tears in my eyes...
Thank you Para for all your good intentions for Lea and God bless you both in spirit.
I agree and I was thinking about him all night long. If the time has come I would like "Friend" to tell us more about Para, about his idea of a "CD in remembrance of Andrea" and about his tragic car crash. His death is a big loss to all of us who miss Andrea.
I am dissappointed that Monica cannot figure out who I am. I only talked briefily with her one time and it was basically an introduction and quick small talk. What worries me is if she knew I had a friendship with Andrea or not? I always assumed she did. But it is possible I guess. Anyone that has contact with Monica can have her contact me at my addy in my post "it's even sadder" anytime.
She didn't tell you about the guy (me) that tried to cheer her up singing on the phone one night? I never knew a song she knew and we were laughing together. C'mon she had to tell.
Monica, if you do not know me or cannot figure it out get a hold of me. I would like to talk.
