I don't know about you but, the Carol Burnett show was an event in our home. Every Saturday night we would huddle around our one TV to watch the antics of Carol, Tim, Harvey, Vickie and Lyle. I loved this show, absolutely loved what these guys gave to all of us, laughter! The best part about the show was when the cast members couldn't do the skit because they themselves were cracking up with laughter; these moments were hilarious!
I was born in the fifties and have watched so many pass on. Over the years you kind of get used to the old timers passing on. When Lucille Ball died, I actually cried. Lucy was a part of my life. When Bob Hope passed, I couldn't help but to salute him especially for his work with our service members and now Harvey Korman....what a crack up he was!
If I could say anything at all to demonstrate to his family how Harvey Korman impacted my life it would be a simple, thank you Harvey, you are hysterically imprinted onto my soul. You made the ghetto and the difficulty of my childhood know laughter and boy did we laugh in my house, with you Sir! This passing is a sad one for me as well!
