In response to the death of Will Yeats, I find myself full of emotion and tearful thoughts. It truly brings home how very much the family of Passions has come to mean, to me and I'm sure  many others.
Goodbye Will..

It's always sad when someone dies, I just entered a poem on Open for him and his friends at Passions (Why do I feel sorrow)

May his spirit flows through you all

I read in announcements earlier today about WY and I cried and felt so bad. It amazes me how important you all are to me, without having ever met any of you face to face.

WY passing hurt, truly made me sad and I wish I could have let him know how much I enjoyed him. I didn't know him outside these blue pages, but it didn't stop my heart from making room for him. I won't forget him.

I wasn't aware that he had passed until now. This is a great sadness. Although I wasn't close to him, his poetry touched me greatly. He will live on through his work. RIP, my friend.

Even though I never met him face to face, I feel like I knew him through his poetry and his comments...I've been feeling sad for a few days...such a sweet, gentle man.

I didn't know him well, but we exchanged kind words now and then and I always loved reading his poetry....you will be missed, Wils.  Rest in Peace, wherever you reside.

I read some of his poetry, he could write about every little thing and make it a big thing. I'll miss his poetry as well as him.

This is a very sad event indeed.  It's events like these that make Passions come closer as a family.

I feel the same way about this fine man and poet who touched all of our lives, he was a gentle person...that's the best word I can think of to describe him and will be sorely missed....
