Hello Giovanni.

Thanks for your nice words about Lea (Andrea).

Is there a photo of Trapani from the Web perhaps?

One of Lea's fans in Italy named Matteo wrote about her at the CSS Forum. Matteo lives near a famous Lake in Italy.

Lea was "a very sports girl" as she once wrote on the Web.  ("sports"  = sporty)

Lea was so nice  - it was a terrible and unlucky illness. It should have been discovered much earlier, but I do not know if it could have been defeated completely?

Nature was indeed very careless with one of her finest works.

We all do our best to keep the glorious memory of lovely Lea alive.

Best wishes from London, UK.

Buona Notte.

Thanks Giovanni - I displayed your large photo.  Very nice views around the buildings.

And here's the song that you had in mind.

Would you know my name
If I saw you in Heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in Heaven?

I must be strong
And carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in Heaven.

Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in Heaven?
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in Heaven?

I'll find my way
Through night and day,
'Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in Heaven.

Time can bring you down,
Time can bend your knees.
Time can break your heart,
Have you begging please, begging please.

Beyond the door,
There's peace I'm sure,
And I know there'll be no more
Tears in Heaven.

Would you know my name
If I saw you in Heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in Heaven?

I must be strong
And carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in Heaven.

Thanks Giovanni. 

Below are the 3 photos that Matteo sent me.  It looks a lovely and historical place.

Maybe you'll visit there one day?

Hello Giovanni,

Yes, Matteo's home is by Lake Garda to the north of your country.  I believe it's near Verona?  Is that right?

How's the weather in Italy. It was nice here this morning (blue sky, sunny) but tonight it's got rather cold  - it seems to be the chilly wind.

Best wishes from London.

Regards, Vic.

PS. Did you see some of the new photos from interviews, shows, etc. on here? and also there are some more nice ones with Silvia and other Czech co-stars at the French Site "XXL"  http://www.xxlfrance.com/forum/index.php 

Note:  Sorry, it seems that that the link to the French Forum is no longer good.

Hello Giovanni,

Thanks very much for your reply and news on the weather.  Here in London, it's not too cold  - more cloudy with light rain yesterday. For several days before, it's been sunny with blue skies, but of course, a bit chilly in the evenings. 

I received a nice message from Czech moviestar and model Monica Sweetheart yesterday. Monica was Lea's best friend and she is currently in Los Angeles, USA. with her friend Slovak star Sue Diamond.

Arrivederci for now,

Regards,
Vic. London 9 March 2006.

From Monica Sweetheart's own private collection, below is a photo of Monica, Sue Diamond and Lea in Las Vegas in January 2004. I believe this would be on their visit to the AVN Awards Show.
