Once in a generation talent that changed what animation could be and how it was perceived forever. Thank you for all your wisdom and inspiration. You left animation better than you found it.
Gracias, maestro Richard Williams. Whether they were animators, or from the top to the bottom of society. An incredibly generous, warm-spirited person who really wanted to learn about the world. As we grieve, we ask that you respect our privacy. And, while we mourn the loss of this sweet and gracious man, we also wish for all to celebrate his indomitable spirit and love of life. In honor of Peter, please raise a glass to freedom. She was our conscience.
Our seer. Our truth-teller. She was a magician with language, who understood the Power of words. She used them to roil us, to wake us, to educate us and help us grapple with our deepest wounds and try to comprehend them. It is exhilarating and life-enhancing every time I read and share her work.

It was a privilege to have known her and an honour to have worked with her, and we take comfort in the knowledge that her work will continue to entertain and inspire for generations to come.

Artie and Bob Diamond were two utterly unforgettable characters. As a young man, he was fuelled by a strong desire to make a difference in peoples' lives through his humanitarian work. We offer our deepest condolences to his family, cast mates and colleagues and join his many millions of fans in grieving his untimely passing. He will be dearly missed. Too sweet. Too funny. Just the nicest, most talented, and and most decent kid around.

They would send a decoy car out the front of the Hotel Ritz while he and Diana would escape out the back in their black Mercedes. In addition, autopsies by French authorities later concluded that he was legally drunk at the time of the accident and also had antidepressants in his system. They departed from the Ritz Hotel at about A. Before leaving, Paul had gone around the front of the hotel and taunted the paparazzi that they would never catch up, thus revealing the whole plan.
Hence, when they pulled away from the curb, a handful of paparazzi on motorcycles were already in pursuit. Paul traveled south on the rue Cambon and then turned right on the rue de Rivoli. Instead of turning on the Champs-Elysees where streetlights would have required. An unknown error has occurred.
