I helped maintain Mitch's web site, mitchhedberg.net for several years after his passing. I only agreed to payment once for a big project, because I was happy to help out as a fan.
Memories of Mitch:
- I only saw him live in Ontario, CA about a year before he died and wish I'd gotten to meet him in person.
- I still keep in contact with his wife Lynn Shawcroft from time to time.
- Got to meet Mitch's parents at a tribute show Lynn put together with other comedians like Doug Benson and Chris Porter; took some friends from Rubicon with me to that show.
- Took my wife to the "Do You Believe In Gosh?" release party that Lynn put on a year or so after that, and got to see Mitch's film, Los Enchiladas.
I haven't been involved in Mitch's site for a year or two now, and they've done a great redesign, you should check it out. Order some cd's and enjoy the laughs.
