he knew how to say it, didn't he? *smile*

Published Sep. 7, 2008

The time has come to say good night,
My how time does fly.
We’ve had a laugh, perhaps a tear,
and now we hear good-bye.

I really hate to say good night,
for times like these are few.
I wish you love and happiness,
In everything you do.

 

The time has come to say good night,
I hope I’ve made a friend.
And so we’ll say “May God bless you,”
Until we meet again.

-- Red Skelton

One more thing important about Red.  He always ended by saying, ..."May God Bless," not just.. "God Bless."   When asked about the reason for that, his response was... that he didn't feel it was his place to tell God what to do.  

Please, always think about the consequences of what you're saying.

 

Bye.  May God bless.  *smiling, and waving*

Always loved Red. And hope you keep this oldrebel in your thoughts, where ever you end up. Do try to stay in touch as I've come to expect that smile when I see your postings and comments. Don't become a stranger. :)

Red was a true class act. Never a foul word, but always funny. He was one of those natural born comedians that could make you laugh with just the expression on his face.

In 1990, my son was in Korea (Army). I sent him a package at Christmas that year. I put all kinds of things in the care package including his Christmas gift from me and his siblings. One of the extra's was 2 videos of Red Skelton.Now I knew that he had no idea who Red Skelton was, but I thought he'd like it anyway. When I recieved a call from him, he told me that he and his whole unit watched those videos and had the best laughs they had in a long time. He wanted to know who he was. I told him that I used to watch him, when I was a little girl. He couldn't believe how funny he was, without using "foul" words. I'm sure he still has those videos and I hope he will show them to my grandson one day. Thumbs up for Red Skelton!!!!

San Franando Red & Freddie & Heathcliff & Gertrude and all of you, We sure miss that wonderful warm clean humor. You must have a very special in heaven. You gave and still give us such great pleasure. They had a wonderful day of reruns of your movies on TV just a week ago. "May God Bless"

/* Lolly smiles and waves */

Red was the best
