(Dedicated to Lorne Greene who died of pneumonia on September 11,1987) <br /> <br />He had my mother's maiden name. <br />Since his death in 1987, television hasn't been the same. <br />He was born in Canada in 1915. <br />The man I'm talking about is none other than Lorne Greene. <br /> <br />He deserved the fame he worked so hard to earn. <br />He starred on a science fiction show and on a western. <br />When he died, it was very bad. <br />A nation missed him and became extremely sad. <br /> <br />Greene died from pneumonia after he had heart surgery. <br />He worked hard so we could have such great shows on TV. <br />He starred in Alpo commercials and I wish he was stll alive. <br />What would he be doing today if he would've survived?<br /><br />Randy Johnson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lorne-greene/
