I love Lucy






Lucy would have been 100 years old today.

She was Married to Gary Morton in 1961.
Well will all be watching her movies today
on Turner Classics.
At the same time the world is missing a fantastic talent.





My Mom and I used to laugh till our sides split.








There will never be anyone as funny.





















Lucy was a beautiful woman, smart and loaded with talent. Hollywood did't know what to do with her. This was a strong woman.


















This was her first home in Hollywood,




as you can see she climbed that ladder.
















Lucy was 77 when she was living at 1000 N Roxbury,
she was taken to Cedars Hosp.
where she under went a bypass. 14 hours after,
the aorta burst April 1989.
The world lost Lucy.










There were 3 funerals, Jamestown,NY
L.A. and Chicago all at the same time 8 PM May 8th.

















Till we meet again Lucy.

Oh Yvonne,
We all LOVED The Lucy Show over here in the UK. She really used to make me laugh. I can't believe that she would have been 100 today.
How are you Yvonne? I hope that you are well and are coping with the loss of your beloved Thor. You must still miss him. I guess that, watching old Lucy films all day will have cheered you up !!!! Lots of love. XXXX

Happy Birthday!

Lucy was one of a kind!

She always made me laugh.

As did Harvey Korman!

I don't see that kind of humor much anymore!

Watching The Big Street right now!
Met Lucy in the Ladies Room in a restaurant in LA in 1979. She wore a minty green ultra suede pant suit. She chatted with me and my girlfriend and we were thrilled. Husky beautiful voice. I have been a Lucy fan all my life.
