I have been trying to find a kid that sent me a letter about 20 years ago. We were both fans of the group Expose. I never responded. I regret that. I have thought about this kid for so long. I have looked for him online. I found a site he created a while back that had some pics on it and some stuff about Debbie Gibson.
Today I had the feeling to look for him again. Finally, I think I found him. Philip Peck I remember that his letter came from Narrowsburg, NY, I think. But then eventually he moved to Long Island. I remember seeing him in an article about him wanting to bring his boyfriend to the prom. It was in Newsday. It was a surprise to see him in the paper.
It's been so many years and I regret not responding to his letter. I didn't not respond for any reason. I was a kid who just kept putting things off. I was a bit shy too. So today, in my search, I came across your interview on HerStories and saw what you had said about Phil. I am so sad. I wish that things could have been different for him. I wish that I had written that letter back. He seemed like such a great guy. I think we probably would have turned out to be great friends. So I realize that it has been a couple of years since you lost your friend but I just want to say how sorry I am for you loss. Thank you for helping me giving me some closure. It's funny because even though I didn't know him, I felt like I knew him. It makes me sad. Well thanks again. I hope life is going well for you!
