the wife of famed comedian Bob Hope passed away on Sunday at the age of 102. He passed away in 2003 at the age of 100. They were blessed to have spent 69 years together...although he once joked that with all the traveling he had to do, they only actually spent 3 weeks together. On their 50th anniversary Delores gave him a paperweight inscribed "Don't think these 3 weeks haven't been fun".
In a place like Hollywood, enduring marriages are scarce. But theirs did. One of their daughters said she thought that laughter in the family home contributed to her parents long lives.
Nancy Reagan said of her "Dolores was a good friend and a good person. She was an extraordinary partner to Bob throughout his entire life, supporting both their family at home and Bob's selfless cause to entertain U.S. troops abroad. Together, they brought countless hours of laughter and cheer to Americans everywhere."
Rest in Peace, Mrs. Hope
Laughter and love, a recipe for a blessed life.
