A Few Words About a Legend: Joan Rivers

Joan Rivers passed away today at the age of 81 after suffering cardiac and respiratory arrest last Thursday during an outpatient procedure. Joan was a legend in many worlds, to many people, and for many reasons. She was an icon in the fashion world, the celebrity world, the gay community and of course in comedy. She was an inspiration to women and men and you will never be able to count the people who owe a debt of gratitude to the paths Joan created. She was strong and unflinching, and in an industry where fearlessness is a common trait, she out-ranked everyone around her when it came to being tough. And of course she was one of the funniest people on the planet- a true legend in the business.
