Sharon: Um, a defining…defining moments, or? What was the original question? Meike: One special moment Rick: What do you take home with you? Sharon: As Sharon? Rick: Or Debbie, whatever you prefer. What are you taking with you? Luggage? Sharon: A lot of luggage. *laughs* Um, the first thing was to see everyone again. We shared something many years ago that was very special and seeing everybody again, it’s really been cool. Seeing how we all turned out. And, the moment, um, on Friday, I was here a couple days early, um but on Friday night I believe it was the first pub, right? Was that the first pub? All: Yeah. Sharon: We had been to the café earlier and then we all came over to the pub. And, um, I didn’t go in with everyone else so I had no idea what they had experienced. Because I was out having a cigarette, okay. They took me in the other way and the rest of the cast had already been in there. And I was walking in the dark, had no idea where I was going. And this love and screaming and pouring out just shook me to my core. I had no idea, firs of all, I knew how many were coming but I had no idea how that sound of love sounded like. And it just rocked me. I started crying. I don’t know how many of you remember when I first came in the door that Friday night. I didn’t know we were that loved internationally. And, um, I will never forget. I’ve never had anything like that happen to me before. And,um, the other thing I still want to mention is that I was very proud in the Q&As to represent Gale Harold. As you all know, Gale could not be here and please know, anybody who is in doubt, how badly he wanted to be here. A lot of us came early, ‘cause Gale was supposed to play in a soccer game on Thursday, right? He couldn’t come at the last minute. First of all, I got to play with Randy more but also I think we all feel him here. Gale Harold was major in this cast and in this story and I think we all miss him and I could feel him here all weekend and I hope I can take home and tell him how much he is loved and he was missed. *huge round of applause* Sharon: I tell him you said that. Meike: And Scott took a picture Sharon: Is this the last moment to talk? Alright, then I would just like to close by saying thank you, thank you to all of you for all the love you have thrown our way.
