I grew up with Star Wars and it has been there for me almost my entire life. Over time, I've been lucky enough to make many friends that have been part of the franchise (actors and other Lucasfilm employees). I know the news of this is hitting harder with many of them than it is with me and I'm quite devastated by this. All my prayers and well wishes to Debbie, Billie, and Gary today.
Goodbye, my princess.
