All of the negative nellies on this page should be ashamed of themselves! We all grieve in different ways. If you have nothing good to say about someone who passed on then keep it to yourselves! Whoever you are( glad I don't know you), you sound quite jealous and you happen to be disrespectful! In whatever way people grieve, for how long and for whom is none of your business! It just reiterates how disrespectful you are!

Well said Fligal!! I agree with you and was really confused by the negativity that was spewed by a certain few. I'm no Joan fan,,but she was still loved by many and her passing was so unexpected. People need to grieve and if they wish to talk about it on here,,what is the problem with that( HH )?? RIP Joan.

Reversing a previous decision (and following an outcry), the Broadway League has announced that all 40 theatres will dim their marquee lights tonight (Tuesday) at 6:45 pm for one minute "in memory of the legendary Joan Rivers." She was a Tony nominee for best actress in 1994 for "Sally Marr...and her Escorts."

Every one has their own thoughts about Joan, I liked her, purchased a lot of her items and never once did I ever have to send any thing back. All her items are very well made. I have a lot of respect for Joan she was 81 years old and still WORKING. She tried to help people who she found or heard about that were having problems. Have not read one thing any place that any one ever said that Joan did not treat them with respect from the guy who worked the elevator, to the people who served her dinner. Everyone has only nice things to say about her. I can be honest everyone handles death in a different way. For me I feel a great loss right now when I think one day Joan is working and preparing for her next appearance and she goes in for what she thought was a minor appointment and ends up dead, that is a shock for all. The host and the whole QVC company I think have shown Joan's family with kindness and I do think she got along with all the hosts and they are hurting even more then us. These people really got to know her and from what they are all posting she treated them all with respect and kindness I feel so sorry for them they have to go on air and try to be happy and pleasant. Miss Joan you bet I do and all I can say is thanks Joan the money I spent on your products was money well spent.

I posted this on another thread also. While I would like to see QVC design a special bee pin or something as a tribute to Joan, I hate to see QVC making money off that tribute. It would be lovely if they would donate the proceeds to one of Joan's favorite charities.

How about a platinum blonde bee (maybe silver or white pearlized?) with a Faberge-like jewel design on this little body, a little dangling necklace, big wings too--

What would REALLY be nice would be for QVC to look for new jewelry or clothing designers who might carry on her traditions. . . give young people a shot at it sort of like a scholarship to try out their designs and showcase their talent here.

Or maybe a Faberge egg for the bee's body?

I noticed that a mourner on one of the other sites was remembering Joan Rivers by planting a tree in Israel. If not that, maybe the best thing you could do to pay her tribute is to support Israel.

Aren't you getting a bit carried away? Do you do this for everyone you know that passes? I think many people on these threads are carried away with their so called "grief" for Joan are only so involved because she is a celebrity, and because she was on QVC. Doubt you would feel the same way about any other celebrity if you didn't know much about them or buy their merchandise.

You don't know her, but act like she was your neighbor or best friend. Yes, many of us liked her, but you are really out of proportion for what you probably do for others in your life that you are closer to.

For some reason everyone is over-reacting to her death more than other famous celebrities even more famous and more or equally loved. She doesn't know you. Most of you never met her.

She was a lovely woman who lived a wonderful life and was of an age when people normally pass on.

Yet people here are reacting as if our President was assassinated, or the Pope died, or something larger.

Celebrities pass every day, but you don't see this kind of reaction on these threads.

Why are you all carrying on so this time ? Just curious. I'm very into societal behavior.

My, My dear Hope; if you would read my comments carefully you will notice I never said I was planting a tree in Israel in memory of Joan Rivers nor do I plan to.. I was merely repeating what another poster wrote thinking it was a kind and thoughtful gesture on her part; wanted to share something nice with others. Since you yourself have been full of love and praise for Joan I would think you would be delighted to see that someone had made such a generous gesture.in her memory.. Personally, I have posted only once or twice on the subject of Joan's passing, own 1 piece of her jewelry, 1 robe and and have never watched her on the Q on a regular basis. I worship no human, celebrity or not, only God. A bit of His love and compassion would go a long way here especially at this time rather than snarky comments to those who think differently.
