Paul Newman was the real deal for sure. How many celebrities would use their "star power" to raise awareness and money to help others in the way he did? From what I could see, he never sold out. Glad I lived for the advent of the DVD because now Paul Newman lives on forever.

He and my dad were born 5 days apart back in March 1925 about three hours from each other, both were married for over 50 years to one woman, both served in the Navy in the South Pacific and both passed away to cancer at home with their family.
