Op-Led: Rest In Peace - Peter Walsh

For decades, he held court at #Coogans, aka Uptown City Hall, with a smile, a song & a story. At Coogan’s, everyone that entered those doors was family. Peter personified the very essence of Coogan’s.

Now, this isn’t just more Mr Whiteside. It’s also introduced by ⁦@JonMichaud⁩, with John Bennett elaborating for us: “Thomas Whiteside’s quizzical sense of delight meshed perfectly with the Twiggy phenomenon.” https://t.co/inc5nR31JP

Kirby confirmed that he did it in honor of Tim Wakefield.

Hilarious! A brilliant actor. I saw him on stage several times, and he lives unforgettably in my memory. He took over Dumbledore from my father, which was fitting as he over took Brando as my father’s favourite actor.

I’m really not sure ppl who don’t work in retail or the restaurant biz understand just how wild the public is on a daily basis. At least once a week someone pulls some ish that it would never even occur to me to do in a public setting.
