Today, the Magic Kingdom, Share a Dream Come True... **UPDATE(a link added on pg 2)**

[PKK/MJK]

This horrific tragedy has touched so many lives and broken so many hearts. Javier was a wonderful man--one who delighted in making other people smile. How sad that this exceptional person has been taken from us much too soon. We take comfort in knowing that he is at peace. Heartfelt condolences to Javier's family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

We are also praying for all Javier's Disney family--especially the parade CM's-- many of whom are so young. They were especially traumatized by this accident. Yet they are carrying on--keeping the Disney MAGIC alive. Their strength of spirit is a lesson to us all.

God Bless you, Javier!!

Thanks, Dan, for this great tribute.

We were there on Thursday afternoon and watched the parade. I was happy that the parade went on as usual for all the smiling children who watched with absolute innocence and excitement. I did see a cast member who was keeping people behind the ropes and watched her get very teary eyed when Pluto and his group came by.

I am keeping Javier's family and friends in my prayers.
