TV Radio Mirror (Jan - Jun 1961)

To Danny With Love (Continued from page 43) vary as individuals vary, but — in my opinion, and in that of my sister Theresa and my brother Anthony — being the children of Danny Thomas is the best present that an army of Fairy Godmothers could bestow upon three kids. The above emotional announcement results from no snap judgment. When I was a little girl, I could look in my heart and find reasons why I thought my daddy was tops; now that I'm grown, I can look into my mind and spirit and verify my heart's report. Many people ask me, "What is your dad really like?" He is like this: His work, like that of most men, is foremost in his life. Once that is said, it must be followed by explanation of the characteristic that makes him different from ninety-nine men out of a hundred. With the other ninety-nine, work is not only No. 1 in their lives, but numbers 2 to 20, as well. With Daddy, his family is No. 1A. That is proved by the kooky goingson during our first Christmas in California. I was ten at the time, Theresa was five, and Tony was not yet born. During the first two weeks in December, Theresa and I spent most of our time at the front window of our Beverly Hills home, scowling into the dazzling sunshine and asking Mother when snow would start to fall. We couldn't imagine Christmas without snow and she hadn't the heart to break the news that the most we could hope for was rain. Daddy was in Chicago, appearing at the Chez Paree, so we assumed that when he came home — his booking ended on December 17 — he would bring the snow. Meanwhile, back in Chicago, the owner of the Chez Paree asked Daddy to remain for three more weeks. "I can't," Daddy said regretfully. "My family is in California; they expect me home for the holidays." The owner said that was okay, he would treat the family to round-trip air tickets and a holiday stay at the Blackstone. Daddy telephoned Mother the news. I won't quote Mother exactly. But she said, in essence, that she had just finished decorating an eight-foot Christmas tree, wrapping all our gifts and signing for packages from all over the country. She had no intention of flying East for three weeks and leaving everything. Apologetically, Daddy reported the situation to the owner of the Chez Paree. The owner was a sport. "Okay, we'll fly the family and their tree and their presents to Chicago. When you finish your run here, we'll fly them home again." That is exactly what happened.
