Credit:“I’m so happy to see everybody coming together on a day to celebrate someone who touched all of our lives,” she said when asked why she was so emotional. “I think that’s really what it is.”“I think it’s really important to everybody for healing. Even the fact that it’s meant to be in this moment now.
During his speech, Easterling recalled a time he and Newton-John were in Prague together after he had asked her to be “his girl”. “That gives me the strength to carry on until I find her again in that ultimate space of love and light.” “Olivia’s deepest essence she was a healer.

And her bandwidth for genuinely caring about people, about animals and creatures of all kinds, eclipses almost what is humanly possible.”
