Lighting a candle from the States. Christopher meant a great deal to a lot of us here.

For Kirk Douglas · 5 Aug 2025

103 years. Champion, Paths of Glory, and one hell of a life. That's the way to go.

What they gave us

Julia Child will be remembered long after the rest of us are forgotten. That's what greatness looks like.

For Babe Ruth · 20 Apr 2025

A light in the dark

My grandmother loved George. When she died we played their work at the funeral. Now they're both gone. Strange how connected it all is.

For Julia Child · 24 Mar 2025

Not many people can say they made millions of strangers feel less alone. Julia could.

For Quincy Jones · 9 Nov 2024

Still with us

My dad introduced me to Quincy's work when I was a kid. We talked about it for hours. Today I'm thinking of both of them.
