RIP Mickey Rooney

My hero, my friend.

Setty

I too got teary eyed when I heard.
I remember him on Little Rascals when I was 3 yrs old.

A sad day indeed. But a good life he had....

He was real . . . a rare treat these days. Too bad the old Lil Rascals are considered non-PC these days, as a boys we used to try to duplicate some of the fun things those guys did, especially the "racing cars" they would put together.

Raising a cup to Mickey!

I don't think Mickey Rooney was ever part of the Our Gang (aka Little Rascals) series made by Hal Roach....Jackie Cooper was but not Mickey Rooney !

"Today's Veteran of the Day is Mickey Rooney. He joined the U.S. Army in 1944 and served for 21 months. Mickey was famous for his "jeep shows" where he would ride along the front lines in WWII to entertain the troops. He also entertained troops in Korea and was a long time member of the American Legion.

"Mickey passed away yesterday. We honor his service."

I love the fact that he gave it all to the stepson and his wife.
