I just want to take a moment to say goodbye to one of my true heroes. I have always loved Joan Rivers. She was crass, edgy and self-deprecating. She was a woman that found success in a man's world. She recreated herself after heartache and failure. She made me laugh every week on the Fashion Police. I also loved her recent documentary. She was equally hard on herself and a litany of celebrities. She was a advocate to the gay rights movement and she brought meals to patients with HIV and AIDS. She demonstrated the ethic of hard work to many younger people that need a role model like her.
I can't imagine that the Fashion Police could continue without Joan. I wish Melissa and her son all the best. Take care and know that your mother/grandmother was one of kind. Her humor was ageless. She paved the way for comics like Kathy Griffin.
Rest in peace Joan Rivers, we all will miss you!
