This is indeed sad to hear. But you got to be amazed that he did make it to 100 years of age though not many people will get that luxury. I did have a great grandmother that lived to be 102 though. At that age she indeed had lived a very fruitful life.

**Thanks for the memories, We will miss you!!!**

I'm so old they've cancelled my blood type.

I thought 'Deep Throat' was a movie about a giraffe.

I love to go to Washington, if only to be nearer my money.

I do benefits for all religions - I'd hate to blow the hereafter
on a technicality.

If you watch a game, it's fun. If you play it, it's recreation.
If you work at it, it's golf.

Zsa Zsa Gabor got married as a one-off, and it was so successful
she turned it into a series.

When they asked Jack Benny to do something for the Actor's
Orphanage - he shot both his parents and moved in.

My father told me all about the birds and the bees, the liar - I
went steady with a woodpecker till I was twenty-one.

I grew up with six brothers. That's how I learned to dance -
waiting for the bathroom.

A James Cagney love scene is one where he lets the other guy live.

~~The one and only BOB HOPE

.....more Bob Hope...........

If you watch a game, it's fun.
If you play at it, it's recreation.
If you work at it, it's golf.

An audience is like dope. Once you're used to it -- the applause
and excitement -- you have to have it again.

I returned to Cleveland for a really big homecoming.I remember it well.How they welcomed me...flags waving, bands playing, big
parades and everything. Yes sir! Lucky for me I arrived on Flag
Day.

I have a wonderful make-up crew. They're the same people restoring the Statue of Liberty.

Virus is a Latin word used by doctors to mean 'your guess is as
good as mine.'

"You should have seen all the Christmas cards I got this year. I got a card from Marilyn Monroe with a picture of her in a bathing suit. What a picture!

You know how George Washington looks straight ahead on a two-cent stamp. Well,on this envelope he keeps peeking over his shoulder."

''I want to tell you, I was built like an athlete once - big
chest, hard stomach. Of course, that's all behind me now.''

"Thanks for the memories," Mr. Hope. You were among the very best. You will be missed.
