Maybe that's why I've been talking like him all day. It started by saying "LaVoy Finicum."

[Black]

I think of him every time I look out my window and see my little Chickadee (and when I see the other two as well...)

Fields had quite a reputation with the ladies and Mae West saw that.
My father-in-law did too when he embalmed him at Forrest Lawn, Hollywood. True story. He never mentioned anyone else or I never thought to ask. Later, he was the first director at Hollywood Hills.

"No, I don't know Carl LaFong - capital L, small a, capital F, small o, small n, small g. And if I did know Carl LaFong, I wouldn't admit it!"

“The room was so packed you couldn't laugh 'Ha, ha, ha.' You had to laugh 'Ho, ho, ho.”

"Never give a sucker an even break or smarten up a chump!"

Finicum's death was a tragedy. What's the connection with William Claude Dukenfield?

The sound of it reminded me of some of the names he used.

"Is this a game of chance?"

"Not the way I play it."
