It saddened me to hear of the passing of Bob Hope and I think that it is only fitting that he be mentioned in this thread today.
Bob was one of us in every sense of the word. He did all he could to lighten, if just for a short while, the loneliness, pain, and suffering of thousands of US Service men and women.
It was mentioned by one of the news agencies that he was afraid of flying yet he flew all over the world because he thought more of others than himself.
Unless I am mistaken, that is the true mark of hero.
A shining light has gone out of the world today. Take a moment to remember this wonderful man.
You may have never seen him yet he thought about you!
