It's been two weeks since I was given the shocking news that Chris, my life partner of 15 years, had passed in our home in East Point, Georgia. And I apologize to those of you just now hearing of this tragedy, but it has been an extremely hard couple of weeks for me even with the tremendous love and support of close friends and family — all of whom want to protect me and shelter me from questions, emails and text messages in order to give me some time to try and heal. I am not saying that I am ready as yet for an onslaught of any of those as the event still feels too fresh and unreal to me, but I thought I should pass along the information as I have gotten a few questions in the past couple of days asking how "we" are doing. I wish I could talk to you all individually, but, well, I just can't.
To those who knew, thank you again for your help, prayers, thoughts, and generosity. I would never have made it through the last couple of weeks without you.
