O'Hara's speech and guide mr. Miyazaki of the stage in the middle of his speech (he looks completely confused by that)... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Davey Jones' Locker 1,324 Posted June 23, 2015 According to the Daily Mail, his assistant has confirmed Horner's death: "Horner's assistant, Sylvia Patrycja, later confirmed that it was the beloved composer who died in the crash. 'We have lost an amazing person with a huge heart, and unbelievable talent,' Patrycja wrote on Facebook. 'He died doing what he loved. Thank you for all your support and love and see you down the road.'" http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3135483/Oscar-winning-Titanic-composer-James-Horner-presumed-dead-California-plane-crash.html Other news sites are still holding off on confirming it at this stage though.
