Paul Newman, a man among men

 

Another wonderful legend has died.  Paul Newman was just 83 years young when he succumb to cancer and I am just heartbroken.  I grew up watching his movies, drooling over his gorgeous eyes and eating his salad dressing.  The man wasn't just an actor, he protested the Vietnam war, he gave all the proceeds from his salad dressing to charities, and he established the Hole in the Wall camps fro gravely ill children. 

In Hollywood when actors switch mates faster than politicians flip-flop on subjects, Newman was married to the same and in this case, also a legend, woman for 50 years!  My heart goes out to Joanne Woodward who as Newman told it; "Why would I go out for a hamburger when I have steak at home?"

Please join me and millions of fans in praying for Joanne and Newman's family as their loss is far greater than ours.  I can only imagine the conversation going on in heaven between Newman, Steve McQueen, John Wayne and God.  It's got to be a blockbuster conversation!  RIP Paul and thanks for all that you were.
