10. A picture of Lucille Ball and Carol Burnett
When Carol Burnett awoke on her 56th birthday in 1989, she learned on the morning news that Lucille Ball had died. Later that afternoon, the flowers she received every year arrived at her home with the note “Happy Birthday, Kid. Love, Lucy.”
If I were in Carol Burnett's place, I'd have broken down and had a good cry right then and there, no telling when I would have stopped. Friendships like that don't come just everyday.
