Suggestion --- Joan Rivers Memorial Bee Pin

bonnielu — Thu, 04 Sep 2014 21:02:04 GMT

I found out the sad news a few minutes ago and the first thing that popped in my mind was her bee collection. I don't pretend to have a vast amount of her bees but it is by far my most favorite thing I ever purchased from her. I am wondering if QVC would promote, suggest, feature, etc a bee in her honor.

We will miss her spirit and resolve. She was a great role model for us all.

What a lovely idea. All proceeds to her favorite charity.

I was looking in my jewelry box today and saw the bee pins, this was prior to Joan's passing. I thought I should wear one in her honor. I think I'll do that now.

Yes in sterling. She made one for an anniversary at one time, I wish I would have bought it.

I just bought the new bow. I have wanted a vintage one for quite some time and can't afford the real thing.

Yes what a lovely idea! I would love the opportunity to buy a pin in her honor as I will always remember her telling the bee story. She had given me strength with that story many times.

THIS is a great, GREAT suggestion. I'm sure that management is going to be busy dealing with the emotional and business end of this for some time...please remind them of this idea in a few weeks.

I wonder if the line will continue or left to languish like the KJL and Nolan Miller lines?

Great idea with proceeds to her favorite charity. I do think the line will continue as Jeanne's did.

I think a memorial bee pin is a wonderful idea and I hope the Q will do this! Also, am hopefuly David Dangle will keep this line alive on the Q somehow, especially the jewelry!

Yes, when I made the suggestion I did not think of a charity. Great idea. I am wearing one of my bees now. And I ordered one a few minutes ago.

I was looking for this and found it. It was a message from Joan Rivers about her collection. It may have been a recent statement but I had heard it before from her many years ago when I started to collect her bees.

"In case you don't already know, I love bees. Why? The bee's story is one of triumph against the odds. In aerodynamic terms, bees shouldn’t be able to fly. Their bodies are too heavy and their wings are too small. And yet they fly, achieving the impossible every day!"

I was hoping maybe her daughter or David would take her here at QVC for her and continue her line. I too would like a commemorative pin of some kind as well. She will be greatly missed by many I am sure, one of a kind.

A bee pin would be lovely.

Somehow, I dont think her daughter will continue the clothing and jewelry lines, and I dont think David could do the presentations like Joan did.

We were lucky to have her.

I sent a Tweet to E! saying it would crazy if an online viral charity thing could start for one of Joan's charities.

OH! I love that pin! I wish I had been more aware of some of her pins years ago. I would love the cherries.

Great idea. Perhaps with Joan's phrase ""Do it now""?

Heard the sad news and was so happy that I too had a bee pin to remember her by. She was quite a woman and our thoughts today go out to her daughter and grandson. Have to say, I went shopping for a few more of her pieces before they are gone. She had such a way with jewelry design that I just loved. Love the idea of an memorial pin, she deserves that.
