TWO FAVOURITE PEOPLE DIED THIS WEEK-BEV THOMSON AND ROBERT REDFORD

 Bev Thomson was an amazing Canadian broadcaster and journalist. At age 61 died too young. Wonderful on screen and off. Canadians loved her. Bev fought cancer battles and advocated for women.

Robert Redford-actor, environmentalist, supporter of human rights and the little guy in the film industry. Sundance film festival helped so many in that industry.

I have all his films in VHS and DVD. Some favourites- Out of Africa, The Natural, and his earlier films Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid. Adolph and I saw The Sting at the St Clair theatre in Toronto. Everyone came out of the movie smiling and happy.

Those blue eyes- he was so handsome. Loved his family. Dealt with the loss of a son. Loss of a baby with his first wife. 

So I cried some tears for both of them and their families.


The world is a better place because they both were here. RIP special people.
