One thought about Jan Clayton
Had the opportunity to meet Jan Clayton on a Western Airline flight from Miami to Los Angels in 1979. Sat by here and enjoy 5 hours of pure delight. Keep in touch with her over the years, to her passing, and often think about her and her life of giving. Jan will always have a place in my heart as one that deserves to be on the Walk of Fame. As today you don't even have to be worth a darn in the movies to get a star. Tank yu for being a part of my life.
