Richard LeParmentier - Admiral Motti
Sunday was already a big day for both of us and more than
a bit exciting for myself. However, it didn’t end with the closing
of the festival.
Corinne and I went to our Hotel and dropped into the bar
to see other Star Wars fans celebrating.
I struck up a conversation with a fan from Germany
(Joe Flammensbeck) and in the midst of conversation, a familiar face asked if we’ve met before. This gentlemam specifically indicated that he thought he met my wife before.
This is when the identity of this gentleman was revealed. I had seen him on stage with David Prowse
the day before and recognised that it was Motti himself!!! This day just kept getting better and better.
It was revealed as well that his birthday was that day. I gathered the Star Wars fan club members throughout the bar and orchestrated an English Version of the Happy Birthday song for Richard.
Our new found friend from Germany filmed it and will send a copy soon and I hope to share that moment
with all of you when it’s online.
Richard gave me two of his business cards exposing a picture of Motti of Star Wars in the Conference Room. He personalised and autograph on the back of one.
This finished a great and fortuitous day.
