Well, he finally passed away. He was a great person. Did so much good for America.
He was born in England and grew up here in Cleveland. We even have a bridge named the Hope Memorial bridge here. He had a brother that lived here and I went to school with His son, who was named Bob, after his famous uncle.
He will be sorely missed. May God bless him. Farewell

Thank you Bob, for all the memories.

I'm a retired Navy veteran and when stationed in Pensacola, Fla I had the chance to meet Bob Hope during the 75th anniversary of Naval Aviation show he did for NBC. What a gentleman and true American hero. God bless him for all that he did for our fighting men and women over the years. I mean, the guy went to the Persian Gulf in his 90's! No other man that I know of was more beloved by the military.
What a life he led.
