6 April 2009

Morrissey would like to ask associates of The Smiths to spare a thought for Gill Smith who died this morning (April 6th) in London. Gill was 51 years old, and amongst many other things in her life, she had been The Smiths press officer/publicist from June 1984 to 1986. Gill was a vivacious, glamorous and witty character, a stern ally of The Smiths, and was loved and admired by everyone around her.

joe frady notes in the forum thread "Gill Smith woz 'ere...RIP" that Gill posted a response in the Marc Almond autobiography thread back in September 2008.

Condolences and many thanks to Ms. Smith for bringing The Smiths and, hence, Morrissey to our worlds beyond Manchester.

Thank you, Moz, for allowing us to appreciate her accomplishments and life with you.

So young.

good to see Moz has grown since the days when he considered the Smiths to be a "closed society." now there are "associates."
