THE RRAZZ ROOM arrived in New Hope, PA, this year after a successful 10-year run in San Francisco, and during that run, RRAZZ Entertainment presented Joan Rivers in concert at the nearby Castro Theatre, as seen left in the live photo from 2011.

It was hardly the first time. In fact, RRazz Room co-owners Robert Kotonly and Rory Paull presented Joan Rivers in the Delaware Valley a decade ago as a headliner at the Keswick Theatre in Glenside, PA, as well as the Count Basie Theater in Red Banks, NJ, the same year -- ironically, the same place the iconic comedienne had been scheduled to perform just days after she was admitted to the hospital.

The RRazz Room and its co-owners have had a long and loving relationship with Ms. Rivers and express their deepest condolences to Melissa Rivers and the rest of Joan's family. She was, indeed, like family. And she is terribly missed.
