A Vision... in a hat

From the WS group @ Facebook:

Michael McCall (Los Angeles, CA), February 19th, 2009: "I love Willougby. First met him at an Art Conference in Columbus, Ohio in '73. He was on a panel with Harold Rosenberg, he came into the massive auditorium late, dressed in an Ohio State Buckeye jersey, threw a football from the back of the auditorium all the way across to the stage, then came running up to the panel and kissed Harold right on the lips! Great guy..."

Danny Dries, January 16th, 2009: "Back in the day, when I was teaching at Washington U. Art School we brought Willoughby to campus to do a performance. He was hip and was publishing Avalanche, the best art rag at the time. His performance ended in blood and no one knew whether this was planned or not..."

Susan Britton (Toronto, ON), December 7th, 2008: "I have great memories of the Willoughby Sharp Show! and the whole Manhattan Cable era. It was a lot of fun racing around town with a crew and cranking out those shows with Cookie, Rockets, Steven, Tim, Vernon and of course Boris. Who knows why it didn't get picked up by HBO or Bravo? Two seasons!"

Judith Doyle (Toronto, ON), November 24th, 2008: "Hi All - I had the opportunity to read your messages to Willoughby and he loved the experience. I think he and Pamela plan on responding one or two at a time as Willoughby's energy allows. The main thing is, he was so happy to hear your stories, memories and thoughts, he even delayed his morphine dose for a couple hours to be as fully awake and appreciative as possible..."

From Pamela, 17 December 2008:

"Willoughby died this morning at 4:45 a.m New York time. I was at home when I received the call. My last contact with him was last evening when I read several new posts on Sharpville and read the names of each of the 81 members out loud. Then I stroked his head and talked to him about how he would always be with all of us and that we would always be with him... how much I love him and that the best years of my life were those I spent with him."
