I am so sorry to report that BroadwayStars.com is reporting that Michael has been killed in a helicopter accident.



Prayers and thoughts go to Bernadette and family and friends.

My mouth is wide open. I am absolutley stunned at this news. My sincere prays go out to everyone who knew Michael.

I didn't want to believe it. Then I read the article. I am stunned and saddened and actually shaking right now at the thought of this horrible tragedy.

I hope that Bernadette, along with the rest of Michael's family and friends can be strong during this time.

Oh My God! I've been a member of this site for a while, but have not really been a poster. I am stunned and devastated. I'm sitting here at work and heart is in my throat. So many of us just saw Michael at Broadway Barks. This is so sad. I'm praying with the rest of you.

No one here to guide you
Now you're on your own
Only me beside you
Still your not alone
No one is alone
Truley
No one is alone

Sometimes people leave you
Half-way through the wood
Others may decieve you
You decide whats good
You decide alone
But no one is alone

People make mistakes
Father's, Mother's
People make mistakes
Holding to their own
Thinking they're alone

Honor their mistakes
Everybody makes
One another's terrible mistakes

Witches can be right
Giants can be good
You decide whats right
You decide whats good
Just remember

Someone is on your side
Someone else is not
Well we're seeing our side
Maybe we forgot
They are not alone
Cause no one is alone

Hard to see the light now
Just don't let it go
Things will come out right now
We can make it so
Someone is on your side
No one is alone


I thought, now more than ever this song is appropriate. I feel for Ms. Peters right now.

I'm shocked. I can't believe it. Poor Bernadette I think all our thoughts are with her today. I know mine are.

It doesn't seem possible. I've had to keep going back to the article on playbill to remind myself. I just can't stop thinking about it.

It's funny how, because our love for Bernadette is so strong, we unintentionally become so connected to everyone in her life (spouses, siblings, managers) and when one of them leaves this earth, it feels as if a little bit of Bernadette has left as well.

I just can't believe it. How tragic! I can't get over bad things happening to good people. It's horrible. It makes me sick to think that Ms. Peters is alone now... well, without a husband- a widow. I want to give her a hug. My god... I don't know what to say or do. I feel like crying.

Completely speechless....all my thoughts and prayers are with Bernadette.

I just got off the phone with PA Fan and we both agreed that we feel we've lost someone in our own families. Although we may not know Bernadette like we think we do...we can't help but feel a portion of the pain for her.
