Friend Arthur Azdair passes from this world to the next.
A friend of mine died this weekend, he's the guy who hooked me up to Charlie Sheen and supplied the history for a screenplay I rewrote based on actual cases of doctors & the mafia rigging the Olympics in the 1970's. Qigong apprentice of Master Hong, well known defense attorney, and friend to the stars...Arthur Azdair used to sit out daily with my coffee shop compadres. He was always full of some wild stories, sage advice, or an ear. He was definitely one of a kind and be missed by many.

Art was really something. Still seems like yesterday that Art Azdair was giving advice at the South Pasadena coffee shop.

I was googling Art's name and found this. Anyway, I knew Arthur when he lived on the island of Kauai, Hawai'i. I work at Blockbuster and he was a regular (came in everyday). We became great friends not long after meeting. He kept me company on my lunch breaks in front of Starbucks everyday. I knew him for about a year before he left our island for the palm desert (I believe it was September 2005) and never came back. I got to talk to him on the phone and through email a couple of weeks before he passed. I hold my memories of him in the highest regard. He was a dear, dear friend who helped me and changed my life more than he ever knew. Someday, in the next life perhaps, I'll let him know. Miss you Arthur! Thank you for this mrtractor. I wrote a blog about arthur one day a little while ago because I was thinking about him. You're welcome to read it. Thanks again!

I NEED TO CONNECT WITH OTHERS WHO LOVED AND KNEW HIM, FOR HEALING AND AWARENESS PURPOSES. I CAN'T BELIEVE HIS BROTHER HAS TWENTY CARS AND WOULDN'T EVEN TALK TO ME AFTER ARTHUR DIED. MAYBE ARTHUR NEVER TOLD ANYONE ABOUT THE GIVING TO HIM BY ME AND MY INVOLVEMENT IN DHARMA WHICH CONTINUES TO HELP HIS MONKS.
ANYHOW, I ALSO CONNECTED HIM WITH A CLIENT WHO WAS KIND OF RIPPED OFF BECAUSE OF THE DEATH - DAMAGING MY BUSINESS RELATIONS A LITTLE.
SO NOW, I SEEK ALL WHO WOULD LIKE TO ESTABLISH COMMUNITY IN HONOR OF TRUTH AND AS FRIENDS OF ARTHUR - PEOPLE WHO CAN SHARE THE TRUTH AND BUILD WITH EACH OTHER INTERDEPENDENTLY.

I was in a relationship with Arthur back in 2001 for a few years. He was the best thing that has ever happened to me. I loved him dearly and remember meeting him first at starbucks in south pasadena. There were several people who benefitted from his wisdom and guidance. Anyone can feel free to email me to talk about Arthur at christinaazd@yahoo.com
