 A man of peace and honour A gentleman on and off the screen The star of To Kill A Mockingbird The finest movie I've ever seen The perfect father figure A man of dignity and grace So very gentle and sincere You had the kindest face I shed some quiet tears When I heard the news today You will never be forgotten Within our hearts you'll always stay I am in motion |

I hadn't heard the news Sue.. What a kind and loving man he was. And a very fine actor. The film industry as well as the general public has suffered a great loss. ~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~ *Love your bleeding heart pic* |

He was one of the greatest actors and he is a distant relative of my sister-in-law's family. Great poem. Cold hands means a warm heart |

The passing of a Giant Legend. Sorrow fills the hearts of so many and no one will ever replace Atticus. Thank you Sue for writing these words of tribute to a great actor. Hugs, Marti |

 (big hugggsssssssss) So far this year we have lost two of the most wonderful "gentlemen" in entertainment history, him and Mr. Rogers! (wipes tears) Gregory was a wonderful person and "To Kill A Mockingbird" is one of my top ten favorite movies ever! (I watched it again after I heard the news) (sigh) Your wonderful poem speaks of all he is, dearest friend, God Bless You, I only hope we can get some more "gentlemen" in the coming years with his spirit and charisma, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |

He had always been one of my old-time favorites! --and oh, that voice!--Those penetrating eyes! I am sure that he would have loved your poem! In fact, he probably DOES love your poem!  Huggums, Linda |
