EXCELSIOR, ACE FREHLEY

You projected an alien guise, epitomizing one who traveled the stars and worked wonders with a cosmic guitar whenever you joined your fellow members of Kiss on stage. 

According to legend, you believed in the extraordinary: a fan of science fiction, the elements of which you applied to your fabled persona. 

In this respect, you became a superhero, who let fans around the world experience your escapades, starring in a cult, television movie, gracing the majestic pages of Dark Horse and Marvel, while being represented by action figures, posters and model kits, as well as engaging in solo ventures, such as the prosperous Frehley's Comet.

For so many, you were an unshakable, inherent part of their formative years; for those older, you were a glam rebel, a symbol of glitz and gleam, an icon for the 1970s and beyond.

With your passing, a part of us passes, Mr. Paul Daniel Frehley, but like an undying star, you'll always shine upon us, inspiring us to look upward and memorialize the rock 'n' roll dreams you shared.
