I bought Don's book and sent it to him telling him how much I've loved his shows, etc. Then asked him if he could autograph it for me. Mr. Rickles sent it back and wrote in it - " get somebody to read my book to you" - fantastic!
This is going to sound a bit 'grand eloquent' over the top and maybe even melodramatic but.... All things in history, all civilizations have a 'rise and fall' to them (quite possibly this will also also apply to the human race itself). Believe what we witness here is a member at their apogee (in their field) simultaneous with that of Western Civilization. I for one feel very fortunate indeed to have lived during this time. (I don't believe 'Dark Ages' are a singular event.)
Dark Ages, specifically The Middle Âges, we have been extremely lucky friend, that by sheer chance we are living in the 20th and 21st century. Say at least we have excellent medical care and meds to relieve our pains. Best regards to you. 🥃 and as Francis Sinatra would say…Salud!
This is absolutely hilarious

Love it .
The kindness and courtesy of Rickles overwhelms me. Really. Thanks for sharing that
Awe, my heart😢 great man!
Never tire of Rickles. Never. As he so often said about others, God rest his soul.
If more people understood what you do, the human race would have a better chance.
Much as I love him for his humour, it's a delight to hear him speak candidly.
He made Sinatra laugh, for real. Hard to get any better than that
The moose story is hilarious 😂. Miss this guy
What a comic genius and a lovely man
Did a lot of charity work like Sinatra without any publicity
Yeah, well, this is what people of Respect and Class do
And now he too is gone, God rest his soul.
He was a prescious gem.
amazing
🤣
