TODAY AUG 9,2010. I FINALLY UPLOADED my PHOTOS & VIDEO FROM RONNIE"S MEMORIAL:
http://www.webshots.com/user/DioRonnieJames
I plan on attending this memorial. Ronnie really meant a lot to me in many ways. I grew up listening to Rainbow & that is one of the only connections I have with my Mom. He's been a big part of my life musically speaking. I haven't wanted to believe this or to talk about it either. It saddens my deeply. Ronnie was always so gracious to his fans & he really meant a lot to me & to others. Ronnie always remember my name & made every fan around feel special...He had a rare gift. It breaks my heart to even type this. My deepest sympathies to Ronnie's family, friends, & fans.
It is astounding how one magical man could bring so many people together to share the love,the passion, & the music. He always made time for his fans & made us all his Rock N Roll children...I can't even imagine what a great guy he was to his close friends & family. He was a class act all the way. That was who I think Ronnie was & I'm grateful for his presence in our lives. I wouldn't have met a lot of my friends if it wasn't for Ronnie & his golden voice. It's not like Ronnie & I were close friends...but I feel like I lost someone so close to my heart & it's a horrible feeling. I know I'll get through this & will always remember him fondly. I could tell he was a very loving, caring person & it's never a good thing to lose someone like that. Especially in a world that needs more people like that.
Love & Magic Always,
DIOn
When I can find the time to read more of other peoples stories without crying...I look forward to reading them...I'm really sad we're all so sad at this time...we just loved that wonderful man!

Ronnie James DIO was loved by many & for good reason. If you ever had the chance to observe his kindness & giving nature you would understand how I & so many feel. Ronnie made everyone around him feel like part of his family. I was always amazed at how he remembered so many fans by name & gave each one his full attention! He really cared about us all. I am so grateful that Wendy & all of Ronnie's friends included us fans to share in the memorial. They took the time to have free commemorative buttons & programs for each attendee. They did sell a tribute T-shirts for Ronnie's new charity "STAND UP AND SHOUT CANCER FUND." for $25. All these will be available at http://www.RonnieJamesDio.com/ so PLEASE don't buy ANY off eBay! Their are plans in the works to celebrate Ronnie's music in an annual concert to benefit the STAND UP AND SHOUT CANCER FUND. I will be looking forward each year to this event! Ronnie will be forever in our hearts! I really thought I'd feel better after the service...but STILL I'M SAD!
Love & Magic ALWAYS!
DIOn

Thank You, we feel too the way you do. Take care and heal. Dio wants us to live and be happy. It is hard to do but for him we have to try. Listen to his songs, it will make you stronger each time. Hope you feel better soon. Our hearts are with you.
