In the end, what matters is how kind you were to others. That’s the main thing those closest to you will remember

Regarding the comment from Brian Bonds, I did find him on X and told him how I felt.  If anyone knows where this posts was originally, I would appreciate that information.

It was on Fuckbook. He and I are friends, and I copied it directly.

Okay, I am going say something that Brian Bonds may not agree with or like.  Frankly, I don't care what he likes.

Of the four mentioned, one of those men is in my phone, I have had  breakfast, lunch, dinner and spent time with him at his home.  So for someone who doesn't know me, (i.e.Brian Bonds) I find it offensive that he makes some kind of comment that the only reason we have an interest in these people is sexual.  I posted a comment about Colton Ford, that was not really sexual, but rather it mentioned that I had downloaded and purchased his music.  That had nothing to do with his onscreen performances.

I take offense to what Bonds has to say.  Because he does not know who everyone has interacted with over the years.   Who is he to tell us what we can and can not say?  I am going to track him down.  I 'd like to know where this posting was made.  I hope for his sake it was not on X.  I am not going to be nasty, that he does not know what has been  going on in someone's life for the past 30 years ago.  His remarks are highly offensive, and I plan on telling him so.

Thanks for your post, because I plan on giving him a piece of my mind.

 

I know that this is several months old, and all of that, but I have wanted to add some perspective to this discussion from a bit of distance. I don’t intend any offense or insult to anyone involved with the original discussion, quite the opposite I’m simply hoping that since some time has passed and some grieving has occurred, it can be assessed and processed in a new light. Both Ellentonboy and Brian Bonds brought up valid points in their respective posts, but each of them also reacted to the behaviors of others with anger which is extremely common during the grieving process. Neither of them did anything wrong, they were just humans being human.

Ellentonboy mentioned that Brian had no idea how someone else was connected with the deceased, and that’s true, even Brian somewhat acknowledged that in his own post before making statements that Ellentonboy disagreed with. I find that Brian’s message was a little mixed there, and he really didn’t have the right to demand that other people behave in specific ways. No one has the right to dictate how another person gets to behave , thus it would have been better if Brian had worded it as a suggestion. Unfortunately, that’s not what happened, he was dealing with his own grief over the death of a friend of his and when humans grieve we often get angry for no reason and lash out at anyone and everyone for no discernible explanation. It’s just something that humans do, as if it’s hardwired into our brains. 
 

Brian Bonds did make a good point though, about what is generally considered appropriate or inappropriate as a topic of public discussion when someone has just died. Ellentonboy’s discussion of Colton’s music career was completely appropriate for public discourse, and I would think wholly welcome by both Brian and the late Colton. Remembering the person who has just passed through something that brought joy to a wider audience than another career they had pursued would have been the preferred choice for many such artists I think regardless of what that alternate career was. In fact, just before responding to these posts I was thinking about what I would have written at the time, and I include it below …

 

Colton Ford was, like all people, a complex human being, who definitely marched to the beat of his own drum. The beauty of it is that he decided to share that with the world by changing gears and launching a music career. Thank you, Glenn, you were truly a wonderful person who was genuinely kind and true pleasure to be around. You are sorely missed.
