Hi Friends,

"For forty years my act consisted of one joke.
And then she died."


We're still with George Burns this week (and with him
we visit Gracie)


"Gracie was a practicing Irish Catholic. She tried to go to
Mass every Sunday. I was Jewish, but I was out of practice."

"Although Gracie never sang opera, as her mother had hoped,
she did have a lovely voice. You couldn't call it haunting -
my voice was haunting."

To wind up this issue...

"Gracie might have been the star on the stage, in the movies,
and on radio, but in the living room, where it really counted,
I was the star."
