I am so sorry - I am glad that his family had joined together with his care & with love.
He was a friend of my brother's. I was visiting "the brother" in LA when I was 15. There was a large house with lots of guys living there - all were sciobots.
Several of us were in one of the guys rooms - he was sick and the rest of us were drifting in & out visiting and all. I was sitting there and this "guy" came in. He looked familiar but I just assumed he was a friend of my brother's that I had met before.
Being right off the plains of Texas I had a bit of a "twang". Ya think!
This guy started asking me to say different words... this I was use to but instead of laughing or making fun of me he started trying to sound like me. Ask me questions - we had a great time. He took off and I thought no more about it.
Later my brother ask me if I knew who "that guy" was - no clue... he told me. This was around the time that the "Great Waldo Pepper" came out.... I had met a movie star!
I impressed my friends with my "connection" when I got back home.
He had a gentle spirit and I enjoyed the brief interaction we had....
I've never understood why these top tier Hubbard cult members......don't go farther up the "bridge." Obviously, money is not an issue....So what is?
Could he (Geffory Lewis) have been an illegal pc....or disaffected....or off lines?
Also want to point out..."Dementia and Parkinsons Disease....." I suppose that would keep one out of the Cult services.......
Also....is there any truth to the rumor in the Cult of Hubbard that Clint Eastwood was on lines...?

I grew up at the Shangri Lodge Apartments in Hollywood. Glenis Bately lived their with her husband Craig. Juliette and Brandy Lewis used to come and stay with Glenis and Geoff would come to pick them up or drop them off sometimes and this was when I saw him. Craig Bately occasionally worked with my dad in the roofing business so I would sometimes hang out out with the Batleys and even babysat their toddler Bree.
Geoff was sort of a scientology rock star because he was the oldest Scientology celebrity still around. He was also the guy from Every Which Way But Loose with Clint Eastwood! He had also been on just about every TV show that was on and he did probably 40 of these before he went Clear in 1976.
We shot a bunch of Scientology films & videos with Geoffrey Lewis at Golden Era Productions over the years while I was at Gold. Geoff was an actor. He was an actor much more than he was a Scientologist. He did not use the Scientology lingo, he used actor lingo. There were certain L. Ron Hubbard policies that we had to follow when we were shooting, Some of these included doing tons and tons of videos of the shot or scene before going on film and other procedures not usually used in Hollywood. A lot of these got thrown out the window when working with Geoff. When not following the rules exactly meant a possible RPF assignment, you remember when the rules get thrown out for certain actors. Geoff was one of those. He did his job and did not need any of our rules in place in order to do so. Jason Beghe just happened to be another one of those actors.
I am pretty sure his wife at the time was a musician and he mentioned her a bit. The other odd thing about Geoff was that most Scientology actors that came to the base had to be on course or getting auditing and be an "active" Scientologist to even qualify to come the to the Int Base. For some reason that was another rule that was thrown out when we worked with Geoff.
R.I.P.
P.S. I am pretty sure that is Claire Edwards, Neil Gaiman's sister in the picture with Geoff above.
I always loved Geoffrey Lewis's work and did not discover he was a Scientologist until I had been in for many years . I was delighted and felt his great work proved something positive about Scientology . I took great pride in successes like his that were constantly credited to Scientology .
I have not faced - other than a few brief moments - the cruel fate of the longtime Scientologist who devotes their life to Hubbard and sincerely tries to do good and never realizes they have devoted their life to a lie .They die a prisoner to delusion and are cruelly robbed of the freedom to choose their own life .
No one ever deserves the fate Hubbard planned for us .

Clint - never - his daughter - well, there was scuffle a while back - her boyfriend a notorious scno, trying to get her . . . . I don't recall all the details. Remember the blog by a scno insider, telling all? BlackRob might have archived that. Check with him.
