Listening to every heart

I met you first
As Davy’s sidekick, Georgie,

Then later as the husband Doc, of a wily
Young lady, who breakfasted at Tiffany’s

We all giggled through the antics
Of a country bumpkin gone to the big city

Later gracing age by showing young
men a thing or two about persistence…

Buddy, I’m going to miss your smile.

From Hillbilly to Investigator, and that after coming up from the ashes of Vaudeville.

Have a safe trip.

BTW... if everything goes in 3's, we- unfortunately- have one more to await.

We keep losing the greats and it makes me very sad.

Rest in peace Buddy boy and give Kate a hug from me.

You know I watched every single Shirley Temple movie and the one I remember most is the one with him in it.  He gave his all to being an actor right to the end, and for that I tip my hat to him, he loved his craft and gifted us with a treasure in every single performance.  I will sadly miss him.
