A Great Friend Has Passed
Michel Lefebvre of Qebec has been a real friend of the Kevin Smith Show for several years. On Sunday, March 2, 2008 Michel suffered a massive heart attack and passed to the other side.
Though I never met Michel in person, we became friends. He sent me e-mail almost daily. He searched the internet for stories about UFOs, ancient civilizations, and other strange phenomena, and he sent to me the stories he found. More than once, the material Michel sent to me found its way into shows. More than once, the material Michel sent me turned out to be my rescue when a scheduled guest pulled off a last minute postponement. Had it not been for the "Michel material", that night's show would have been a disaster.
He did not always agree with my views on things, and he was not bashful about saying so. I appreciated that in Michel. He was a man of great integrity, and he knew how to disagree with someone's view while still remaining their friend.
Michel is in a far better place today than he was in before Sunday. He no longer has to deal with the outrages of life on this side. And I am proud to say he was my friend. I will miss him.
