Recalling Willie Garson and the Ultimate Gay BFF, Stanford Blatch
Sex and the City, brilliantly played by the late Willie Garson, whose recent death left the cast, and most of us, stunned and saddened.Ironically, the day before he died, I saw a paparazzi photo of him with Sarah Jessica Parker’s Carrie that touted his return to Just Like That, the reboot of the hit HBO series. I remember thinking out loud, “Oh great, Stanford is coming back.”Garson was straight, but his character was out and proud, starting in 1998, when the show premiered.
