John Brizzolara’s Last Column
John, or John E Guitar as I once called you, I am saddened by this announcement since it is the only way I get any info about you at all. As your sister, in Chicago, by the way my name is Amy in case you totally forgot, I received email notices when your column was published. I'm not even sure if you will see this posting. If you do read this, I will not expect a reply or contact from you. Never quite understood why you chose to x me out of your life. I never wanted that to happen. I tried. I love you. I wish things were different. Was in NY last week and saw Andrew. He remembers you too. My heart aches from loosing 2 brothers for reasons we might have been able to change but never did. Peace brother. I think of you often.— March 30, 2012 12:42 p.m.
I Wasn't Crying for My Mom
So, you wrote this story or you "borrowed it" from Rick? Either way, what? Not suprising that you turned your mothers death into another thing about you. I mean, it affects you but is not really about you. She had plenty of demons too you know. Many were manifested on her children. Again, you weren't the only one.— August 5, 2011 8:56 p.m.
Free Fun in the Summertime
You can think of little more celebrated than summer in San Diego? you have been gone from Chicago too long my brother. Free concerts at Grant Park, jazz, blues, gospel, on and on. In those precious 2 -3 months of summer here we celebrate unabashedly. Time is precious as is summer in Chicago.— August 5, 2011 8:11 p.m.
