FAREWELL TO VINCE FLYNN & JAMES GANDOLFINI

FAREWELL TO VINCE FLYNN & JAMES GANDOLFINI Two deaths yesterday, have me feeling very sad: Vince Flynn, an amazing writer, whose books I have been enjoying for years. Also James Gandolfini, who I find difficult to separate from his Tony Soprano character. Gandolfini’s, Tony Soprano gave me years of pleasurable TV viewing.

Both “Men” were taken from us at to young an age. As a loyal reader of my favorite writers and follower of my most loved Actors (and their Characters), I was hit with a “one two punch” yesterday.

Flynn had become my “absolute” must read Novelist. This was after 35 years of reading. Starting with LeCarre, Ludlum, Sheldon, Arthur Hailey, Jeffrey Archer and the like. After Flynn’s first book, I was hooked. I always had his books pre-ordered on my Kindle.

Both these deaths have me feeling grateful to be alive and healthy at 55, but have left a giant “gap”…. I do not feel will ever be filled.

Glenn began in the “family business” more than 30 years ago, by coming to work for his Father, Martin Greenhouse. He often recounts how nervous he was, when at 19 years old his Father forced him to pick up the phone and speak with David Suskind. This was to be the first of dozens of phone calls and meetings to come for Glenn……with Celebrity Clientele. Glenn considers himself very fortunate to have spent his life working at a job he truly loves and as he puts it: “earn a comfortable living at the same time.”
