I'm a bit late on this, but thanks for posting. A nice eulogy by Atwood.

Fantastic! amazing as always Richard!

My favorite part of Ms. Atwood's eulogy for Ray is the very last paragraph. So true!

"Ray Bradbury saw his writing as a way of living on after his death, and it will certainly perform that service. But then there’s Bradbury as a person. All who knew Bradbury testify to his generosity toward others. His imagination had a dark side, and he used that dark twin and its nightmares in his work; but to the waking world, he presented a combination 
of eager, wonder-filled boy and kindly uncle, and that was just as real. In an age of writing classes, he was self-taught; in an age of spin, his was an authentic voice, straight from the heartland; in an age of groomed images, he was a natural."
