With the passing of Bob Hope, goes an American Icon, the last of the "great" entertainers from the 30's and 40's. He will be missed.......42

You "beat me to the punch!" I was going to post "Thanks for the Memories"

Bob was one of the greats and really loved it here in Vancouver. He will be missed by everyone.

Lad, that would have been a great title for this thread. I am wondering if his family will put those words "Thanks for the memories", on his tombstone? Seems fitting somehow.....42
