Death is just too final for me & SO sad! I cannot place why his passing touched me so. Was it because he was a great actor, a husband, a father, a philanthropist? I don't know. What I do know is that I feel a connection to this man that I never met & I think it is due to Brendan. You see people have told us SO many times that Brendan has "Paul Newman eyes".

I ALWAY'S wanted blue eyes! But alas I inherited brown ones from my dad! I never even thought I would have blue eyed children because of that. God had other plans!

SO when I heard that he had died I felt SO sad. I wanted to rewind time & send him that note to share my story. I will never get that chance but I still have my Brendan with his ...
