Comments on: Rest in peace, Lex. http://gymthump.wordpress.com/2008/04/24/rest-in-peace-lex/ a rather superficial look into women's gymnastics Sun, 20 Jul 2008 09:26:59 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=MU By: Patricia http://gymthump.wordpress.com/2008/04/24/rest-in-peace-lex/#comment-629 Patricia Thu, 01 May 2008 19:31:51 +0000 http://gymthump.wordpress.com/?p=195#comment-629 “Lex’s” last montage is just a continuation of Aleksas’s brilliance. I never had an interest in gymnastics until I viewed his montages. I can not put into words why and how much his passing has and will affect me. I am in tears as I post this comment, I just hope Aleksas knew how much of a contribution he made in the short time he was in the world, everyone can not have that credited to their lives. I knew him through his accomplishments; those haunting eyes of his will never be forgotten as his dedication to his obsession with gymnastics. For those of you who could or should have realized how special this young man was and for whatever reason did not let him know, there will be forever a void for not getting this right. I have watched all of his work and it is not without tears every time for the loss we will all have to endure. His personal montages revealed how much he gave and how much he could care for someone. I just pray he felt some love before he left. I wish I had a chance to have met you. RIP Aleksas Leave a Reply “Lex’s” last montage is just a continuation of Aleksas’s brilliance.
