The following is my dear
husband Renato's response to Tracy Ryan Terhune's disgusting, ageist
and defamatory post he made on my birthday on the blog he has run for
eight years and counting under my book's title to deceive my web
traffic. I should feel sorry for someone like Tracy Terhune, who can
only wish he had the kind of love Renato and I share. For if he did
he would not be so eager to insult and cruelly torture the elderly.
And I am proud to say that is what we are.
Renato responds to this
latest and mind-bogglingly ageist BS. I warn any of Tracy Terhune's
associates and friends that if they are of any advanced age... this
is what Tracy Terhune thinks of you. Making fun of someone who was
and is fortunate enough to have lived this long only reveals his true
nature.
Renato writes:
“Tracy Ryan Terhune
says Evelyn is deteriorating....
This as his happy
birthday wish for the seventy-two beautiful years Evelyn has lived.
Tracy Ryan Terhune dared to write and I quote verbatim:
"It's sad seeing
deterioration.
Is Evelyn Zumaya in
control of her faculties? Asking for a friend ... Just a guess ...
Maybe Renato was on the back-porch sipping on Ensure while she typed
her 72nd Birthday rant?"
... and
so on and on.
First of all I suggest to
Tracy Ryan Terhune that he has to wash his mouth with strong soap
before daring to even speak Evelyn's name.
I did not marry Evelyn to
allow Tracy Ryan Terhune to insult her, on the pirated blog Evelyn
created to tell about her book, a decidedly innovative book.
I did not marry Evelyn to
allow Tracy Ryan Terhune to give his condemned altar boy David Bret a
pulpit from which to spit his poison.
I didn't marry Evelyn to
allow Tracy Ryan Terhune to offend us because we lived "too
long".
In these times when the
"politically correct" rages, I wonder how a person like
Tracy Ryan Terhune is allowed to gather some fans of Rudolph
Valentino around the Hollywood Forever crypt.
I wonder why he is
allowed to freely insult, ridicule and abuse two elderly people who
care about the true story of Rudolph Valentino.
If there is an authority,
a serious authority, whether they are descendants of Valentino, the
Hollywood Forever administration or any other authority, I ask that
because of his actions abusing the elderly and because of his ageist
attacks, that Tracy Ryan Terhune not only be prevented from
celebrating his macabre rite, I ask that he also be prevented from
even accessing the grave of Valentino because for us as his
victims...his presence there offends Valentino's memory.
Valentino's descendants
may very well be upset with Evelyn because she unearthed the
skeletons they jealously kept hidden in ancient trunks in dusty
attics. I tell you, “Valentinos”, if you have a bit of dignity
left, it is time to clean your conscience and admit the truth. This
regardless of your opinions towards Evelyn because a person who acts
so publicly like Tracy Ryan Terhune dishonors your relative's final
resting place.
If Valentino's descendants want to
continue celebrating their benefactor's memory, they could certainly
find people far more worthy of the honor than Tracy Ryan Terhune.
I say to the Hollywood
Forever cemetery management that I hope you realize that a person
exhibiting such behavior as Tracy Ryan Terhune's, does not add luster
to your establishment but only brings discredit.
I read, almost every day,
about people whose shows are canceled, important contracts closed and
people who must hide because maybe they have made a gaffe, a certain
bad gaffe. Tracy Ryan Terhune does not make gaffes but worse... he
knowingly insults, abuses a woman, ridicules people who are over and
brilliantly seventy years old. To me he is one who wants only to show
off his toys and recite a psalm from the Holy Bible in a boring,
hypocritical, minced and retracted ceremony; supported by the
cultural comfort of his companion David Bret. It is my strong desire
that Tracy Terhune's Dance Macabre should cease!
Who will provide a good
cleaning and honor the memory of that eagle born in a vulture's nest!
I didn't marry Evelyn to
allow Tracy Ryan Terhune to continue in his game of massacring her,
as long as I live I will fight for a character like Tracy Ryan
Terhune to have nothing more to do with Valentino's world.
I say to Tracy Ryan
Terhune, Evelyn is far from deteriorating and I think she grows more
intelligent and beautiful every day. I am not sipping “Ensure”
but my good Italian red wines and if I was drinking Ensure that would
be fine too.
If he wonders why I
married Evelyn; I married her because of two reasons. The first one
is because I love her and the second one because she loves me. I say
this so Tracy Terhune knows how much we love each other as by his
actions he shows he is one of those angry loveless people who find joy only in hurting others.
