Remembering David Cassidy's Fans

-

Jacque Cardenas, a fellow fan from the US has written, 'I hope this post is okay..' Of course dear Jacque, your post has saddened me, like many others, but I'm also grateful for it. Jacque Cardenas has informed us that Kim Morgan died in January. 

Kim Morgan, as Jacque put it, was 'one of our DC sister', I prefer, 'a fellow fan', but of course it's not important, she was one of us, she was David Cassidy's fan. 

Kim Morgan was my FB friend, but not a close one, we became FB friends because in the past she quite often commented my blogs, but I haven't seen her FB posts recently. I didn't know she was unwell ..I wished her Happy Birthday in November and that was all. I even didn't notice her absence, and now I'm truly sorry because of it. And that I lost that opportunity to be a better, a virtual, but nevertheless a friend. A DC sister.

I don't know which DC's song was Kim's favourite one, but this one is playing in my head today when I think about her.

And I'm thinking about many other fans who once were active on social media and DC's groups, and suddenly disappeared, and I even can't remember their names. Of course some of them could stopped being interested in David, some maybe had more important and urgent things to do, health problems, passing of their loved ones..that's life. But some of them have died and we even don't know about that fact. 

4 years ago, in February 2021, Danny Calvagna, a fan and a wonderful lead singer of the band called 45rpm, died of Covid. He was 66. Like Kim Morgan.

There is a video on YT. 45rpm Partridge Family 50th anniversary livestream. And I'm watching it today evening and thinking about Kim and Danny and many others. Also about Bernadette. And David of course. 

Till we meet again.

Love Is All That I Ever Needed. A David Cassidy Biography. Chapter 1

  Chapter 1 The Divorce David Bruce Cassidy was born on April 12, 1950 in New York City. He was born into show business, it was running in his blood. His parents were young and glamorous working actors. Jack Cassidy was 23 years old, Evelyn Ward 3 years older, both very busy with their career, frequently touring and absent. David spent his early years with his maternal grandparents in West Orange, New Jersey, just 20 miles from New York. He felt he was different from other kids, didn’t exactly fit in, his school friends’ parents didn’t look like his, they had ordinary jobs, like his grandfather, Frederic Ward, who all his life worked as a utility meter reader. David was a small child, slightly built, and had to wear glasses. During his life he underwent 5 eye operations. It wasn't easy to be the youngest, and not to have a brother or a sister. Someone to fight with, but also to play with, and to share love, good and bad experiences. He was a lonely child, brought up by honest,...

Robyn Millan

  I learnt yesterday that Robyn Millan died last year. Someone published a post about the TPF's episode where she'd appeared as a guest star, 'Dora, Dora, Dora', Season 2 episode 1, aired 50 years ago, on September 17, 1971..And there was a comment about that episode that the script was poorly written, sexist etc. Maybe, no one would dare write something like that now, but the world looked different half a century ago..And I really felt sad yesterday because of Robyn. She started her short career in 1965, 33 credits, mostly tv roles - Mission:Impossible, The F.B.I, Hawaii 5.0, Ryan's Hope..But we would remember her as Dora, the girl Keith fell in love with, and Robyn, the girl David dated for a while.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmZnk9RFKm0&t=1s  In December 1971 on Photoplay Magazine an interview with Robyn was published :' He is just marvellous and really knows how to handle his success.(..) We hit it off from that first day six months ago.(..) I resp...

'He Was So Pretty You Couldn't Look Away..'

'and sexy in a way that is timeless.' It's from Kevin Fallon's article published on www.thedailybeast.com on November  22, 2017.  Maybe it's not the smartest thing to do, but the newest article about David Cassidy on Record Collector Magazine, and first of all different pointsview of it, made me have a look on some articles published after this horrible day,  November 21, 2017. But first a song. We experience another heat wave here in Poland, I haven't seen a rain in many days, which is scary, so maybe a song about a rainy day. We miss David on any day, and this is one of his best songs. And amazing, very moving tribute video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ6qjfK72L8 We have 42 web articles from November and December 2017, on the website, and I can't see Kevin Fallon's on the list, even that I'm sure I sent it Jane last year, because this is not the first time I'm writing about this article. I'm a former librarian, I believe everything sho...
