Very, very sad. Condolences to Martin and the children.
Thank you for for letting us know about this Rachel. It is so sad because Short is such a funny comedian to have such a tragedy in his life. My condolences to the family.
I didn't know her, but I feel so bad for Martin, 30 years is a long time and a I'm sure he is going to be lost without her.
