Name: Lesley Location: Cape Town, South Africa	I became a devotee of Shirley Temple's huge talent, gift for joy, and courage from the moment I first saw her sitting on the piano singing "Laugh, You Son of a Gun." She's seen me through many dark times. The world seems sadder now, but what a fabulous life and what a splendid legacy.
