On Flick: A Message from Dee Dee

 

 

 

 

Dee Dee Wilde

We miss her dreadfully but were all so touched by the response of fans and followers everywhere.

She was a popular kid and would have been chuckled by all the media attention. Flick never really got the recognition in her lifetime for the briliant work she did with us and on other projects, but at least with her passing she got the accolades she deserved.

I feel honoured to have known and worked with her and to be able to call her a life long friend. I'm sure I can speak on behalf of all the other girls in Pan's because I know they feel the same way too.

The memorial was a beautiful event in her garden at her home in Clinton USA. The sun shone and many friends and colleagues came to pay tribute to Flick. Nigel Lythgoe (Pop Idols and So You Think You Can Dance was there) came all the way from Los Angeles even though he was very busy. Bless him!

As far as I'm concerned Flick will always be around in spirit watching over us girls. I know she's not far away.

And to all our wonderful fans and supporters who keep Flick and Pan's People alive, I thank you.

All the best

Regards,

Dee Dee Wilde (Pan's People)
