Time Out: Why Don’t My Kids Want to “Friend” Me on Facebook?

Funeral arrangements, scholarship, memories of Fred Travalena
July 2, 2009 11:41 AM EDT — Joanne Brokaw
Impressionist and entertainer Fred Travalena passed away this week. I remember watching him on TV when I was a kid and being completely blown away by his impressions. He made me laugh and laugh. The news reported this week that he was such a good impressionist that filmmakers used him when they needed to rerecord dialogue in films, rather than calling the actors back in. That's a good impressionist. Funeral arrangements have been announced for Travalena, and I asked a couple of NCV columnists to share their thoughts about Travalena, who was a Christian. Bananas' host Thor Ramsey also chimed in; Travalena appeared on the show in 2006. You can read more about it here: http://bit.ly/3m98D |
