RIP Paul Newman

Some actors are just always *there* and always *on* and Paul Newman was one of them. He was also one heckuva man.

He died yesterday. I will miss him.

I'm not sure I know what he acted in, though I know he was an actor.

But everyone knows his salad dressings.

I had the privilege of meeting Mr. Newman at MIS when I was a young teen. He was a gentleman, and even though I had only met him once, when I saw him again the following two summers, he remembered MY NAME.

He was a real fantastic man and will be greatly missed.

Wow. Those sound like memories to treasure!

They are! The first time I saw him I sold him a stadium cushion for his wife. He was teasing her about how her bottom was too sensitive - it was very adorable. :)

Great actor, decent and kind human being and number 19 on Nixon's original White House enemies list.
Missing him already.
