Apart from that, there was one thing she said you couldn’t miss. “The piano was definitely the focal point, and I saw him constantly at the piano,” Cor nett said. She knew he was a musi cian because he would play his songs on that piano and have her sing along, teaching her how to clap on rhythm. She said they would sit in the apartment and he would have her clap along to “We Will Rock You,” one of Queen’s most popular songs. “I think it just fed him,” Cornett said. It wasn’t all about Queen’s music on those trips, though. She said Freddie took her to a Pink Floyd concert once. She said she wasn’t a fan of the music — she was a “bun- head” who liked ballet, so classical music was more her thing — and it seemed like the rest of the audience wasn’t either once they saw Freddie was in attendance, too. “They wanted pictures of him and for him to sign things,” Cornett said. “And of course, when I would come home and tell my parents they would say they have no idea what it was about.” They know what it was about now, and so does the rest of the world. Cornett, who eventually immigrated to the United States to train as a dancer, is revisiting her history with her cousin now that “Bohemian Rhapsody,” the movie exploring Queen and Freddie Mercury, has been released. She said she’s proud to be related to him and was happy to have spent time with such an iconic musician, but the man behind the music doesn’t surface in the movie. “It was a little strange for me seeing the film because the film, I guess is only from his musical family’s perspec tive,” Cornett said. “I think a lot of personal Freddie the man — they’ve shown Freddie the musician — but I think Freddie the man has been completely left out of the movie. Every body loved the movie. I came out feeling very empty.” Maybe it’s because she vis ited him and knew the man more than the musician. But the man — the shy piano player who thought too often about his teeth — pre ferred the strength he found on stage. “I think music fed him,” Cornett said. “It’s who he felt best being.” For All Ox XXMbTfUO Call or Come See Us Today 100 Washington Street NW - Gainesville, GA 678.943.8776 ■ occasions-florist-gainesville.com HOBBY LOBBY FIND A LOCATION NEAR YOU OR SHOP ONLINE AT HOBBYLOBBY.COM STORE HOURS: 9 A.M. - 8 P.M. • CLOSED SUNDAY Christmas is what you make it Mirrors, Clocks & Decorative Crosses Wall and table Candle Holders Wall and table Wood Decor Wood wall decor and finished decorative wood accessories Does not include furniture or unfinished craft wood Decorative Lanterns, Birdcages & Terrariums HOME DECOR 50 % OFF Knobs, Pulls, Handles, Hooks & Decorative Hardware Ceramic Decor Tabletop decor, salt & pepper, plates, serving dishes, pitchers and cups Framed, Canvas and Adhesive Vinyl Wall Art Categories Listed Does not include Seasonal Department Glass Decor Glass Department, floral glass vases and craft glass containers Does not include craft stained glass Metal Decor Metal wall decor, functional & decorative metal accessories (Includes metal containers in our Floral & Crafts Departments) Does not include furniture Men’s Metal, Wood, Resin & Ceramic Decor Wall and table Decorative Memo Boards, Chalkboards & Corkboards Priced $24.99 & Up Polyresin & Pottery Decor Finials, candle holders, boxes, bowls, floral planters and vases Candles, LED Candles, Fragrance Cubes & Warmers, Potpourri & Diffusers Priced $2.99 & Up Does not include oils or “Your Price” items New Year’s and items labeled The Spring Shop™ are not included in Home Decor sale.

Bush did however add a unique element, a train, complete with a viewing car that carried his body from Houston to College Sta tion, Texas, where he was interred with his wife, Bar bara, and their daughter, Robin, who died of leuke mia at 3 years old in 1953. The time will unfortu nately come when we will see elements of that here in Georgia at the passing of President Jimmy Carter, who is now the oldest living former president. Some may think it is a bit much, but I’m glad we do it. Harris Blackwood is a Gainesville resident whose columns appear on the Sunday Life page and on www.gainesvilletimes.com.
