“My idea of Christmas, whether old-fashioned or modern, is very simple: loving others. Come to think of
it, why do we have to wait for Christmas to do that?”
― Bob Hope
Bob Hope (born Leslie Townes Hope on May 29, 1903 in Eltham, London, UK and died on July 27, 2003) was a British born American comedian and actor who appeared in vaudeville, on Broadway, and in radio, television and movies. He was also noted for his work with the US Armed Forces and his numerous USO tours entertaining American military personnel. Throughout his career, he was honored for his humanitarian work.
