That’s Right! Anne of Green Gables….That’s how I really know him and loved him in that series. He was perfect. Nice tribute!
I still have a couple of interesting chapters about Richard Farnsworth – though it may seem I’m overdoing things.
Anne of Green Gables was a very popular series here in Canada. Well done too.
Quite a long career and for some reason, I find it heartening that he found his fame in his “golden” years.
I don’t think he cared all that much about Fame and Fortune, but he got his just reward anyway.
