letter to the editor:

Honor Rivers with laughter

I learned from the death of Robin Williams that the best way to remember the passing of a comedian is not with a customary “moment of silence” because the worst thing a comic can hear is nothing.

You can honor their memory by giving them a moment of laughter.

The late actor Michael Landon left a message for his family, friends and fans that read: “Remember me with smiles and laughter, for that is how I will remember you all. If you can only remember me with tears, then don’t remember me at all.”

Keep that in mind when you think about Joan Rivers, and recall her fondly with laughter.
