Paul Newman will be missed a lot...


I know this comes late, but I've been busy these days, Nevertheless I am sad to hear about Paul Newman's death last Saturday.

Paul Newman, famous for his roles in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Cool Hand Luke as well as a massive portfolio of other projects including Cars and Road To Perdition, died at his long-time home in Westport, Connecticut, of cancer.

Newman is survived by the actress Joanne Woodward, his wife since 1958 and two daughters from his first marriage to Jackie Witte.

In addition to his film career, during which he earned 10 Oscar nominations (winning best actor for The Color of Money in 1986), he was a well-known race driver and race team owner and the founder of Newman's Own, a company which Newman launched single-handedly that became a mulit-million dollar a year food company and major benefactor to charities around the world, donating over $250 million.


Paul Newman will be missed by all. He was a true legend, who's skill, work ethic, attitude and outlook are rare, indeed.

I am so sad that my post include Hollywood Death, but that is life, sometimes you're happy,sometimes you're sad.
