No more Hollywood movies...
No more Broadway shows...
The spotlight fades
And the stage goes black
In the darkness you hear
Quiet sobs in the audience
It's the final curtain.

And in the heavens
The brocade curtains rise
A devine spotlight shines
Revealing the newest star
To grace the celestial stage
With standing room only crowds
Eager to see the show.

Mr. Bob Hope passed away on July 27,
2003, at the age of 100.

Mr. Hope shall be missed, for he en-
tertained us for 50 wonderful years;
he was a consumate actor, humorist,
and humanitarian.

I admired Mr. Hope greatly in his
career, especially since he enter-
tained and supported our troops.

*SALUTE* to our troops, and to Mr.
Hope, for caring.

Mr. Hope shall be missed...my con-
dolences to his family.
