Red - one of my childhood memories. What a great clown/comedian/philosopher!
And, I believe we're actually related too! I think we're second cousins twice-removed.
Red's Grandfather and my Great, Great Grandfather were brothers. What I
understand is that my Great, Great Grandfather's name was Marion, I
believe, and they were raised in Vincennes, Indiana.
Below are a few links related to Red that I found searching the Net.
The Bronze Lady of Madeira Beach, Florida (no longer maintains web site) -
featuring Red Skelton paintings. This place deserves special mention. The
Internet makes this world a smaller world. And, thanks to them, I was
able to send a letter to Red. However, his death came before a reply. So, I
can only continue to dream of meeting him one day in heaven.
