I am definitely going to do this---actually have most of the stuff filled out right now. But how do I express how I feel about Kate in three sentences? Hmm...

I have no words to express what Kate has meant in my life, I can only say that her influence on me has been profound, especially during my teenage years. Qualities such as the dignity, integrity and intelligence with which she lived and worked are hard to find in our world today--my, she was yare! Thank you, Kate, for your glorious career and the fun I've had watching it, for your brownie recipe and the fun I've had eating it, and for teaching us all to listen to the song of life.
....is what I said with my 15$.

I've been working on mine, chum, and uh.....I think I need to scrap everything I wrote. It was just a list of stupid things that Kate has made me do throughout the course of my life. Brownie-explosions were in there. And breaking into houses. But.... seeing as how Kate would not be reading it, mayhap I should do the same ole "blah dee blahh I HEART HER blahh" routine.
This is hardest thing I have ever been prompted to do.

Yeah, I didn't mention that it took me about a hour and twenty minutes to write three sentences.
So. Difficult.

I donated my $25 a few days ago. This is what I wrote:
"I'll never forget Katharine Hepburn. Fine actress as she was I was more impressed by who she was as a person, so many wonderful and limitless qualities that made up her inimitable presence we all adore. She was and still is my fail safe source for inspiration, and yes, boys can appreciate her too. A guiding hand she is to that spontaneous and tough mystery we call life."
For three or four sentences, I guess this will have to do.

For three or four sentences, I guess this will have to do. Another terrific comment from someone in this group. Just great, Richard. I think Kate Hepburn was most definitely confident of her worth, but I think that even she was astonished and bewildered at the esteem in which she was held, even though she may have secretly enjoyed it. I bet that sometimes she hated it or was puzzled by it. But ultimately I believe that she felt believed the affection for her was genuine and heartfelt. Some will say that she was not deserving of it, but we know better. And she knew we knew. ;-)
