ANOTHER EPIC HERO PASSES

they say it is difficult to truly mourn someone you don't know personally.  i don't find that so.  a truly great actor, charlton heston, has passed away at age 84.  he has suffered from alzheimer's disease.  he was a good man, even though i didn't agree with some of his politics.  he will be sorely missed in the world of thespians and their fans.  may you "break a leg" in heaven, MR. HESTON!

  1. charlton a character you portrait
    an image in film for past your day
    a vision we name with even love
    of moses or ben hur we say above
    not your name as if you could never be
    the person in person as we would see
    but in time you showed us who you are
    the bright man behind the star
    so thanks for the loan of image and time
    and we will give you a smile as we share in rhyme
    the beauty you portraited to us all
    when heaven said it is the final curtain call
    so thank you again i share this with those in love
    dear friend and start we will see you above

  2. I had read that he passed but did not stop to read the details.  He is a legend for sure.  I was not aware that he'd had Alzeheimer's.  That's so sad.  I hope that some day that a cure is found as well as it's source discovered.  I didn't agree with alot of his politics either.  He is a loss to the acting community for sure.

    Thanks for this post,
