We played pool together and talked about stuff. He was a lovely, considerate, interesting man. But I was very cognizant of the fact that despite the fact that he was my grandfather, he was something else that was very meaningful to everybody. We'd be walking down the street on our way to dinner and the world would stop because people would stop on the street and gasp when they recognized him. It was a bizarre feeling to be moving with the spotlight, and to be just outside the shadow of it. I think Fred Astaire embodies elegance. He had gravitas in that he was gifted, a physical genius. My mother would tell me he didn't work out, didn't adhere to any physical regimen to be any stronger or more nimble. But he rehearsed constantly and with absolute deliberation over and over again so that by the time a number was on the big screen it was indeed perfect. It was a product of excruciating difficult work and very long hours. And so that grace is the embodiment of hard work. He was a hardworking man who was able to manifest that in absolute elegance. But he did have a gift. He was imbued with a natural precision that was his genius. Where his craft came into play was his ability to tap it, to release it. He performed since age four. That's all he knew.

“Of all the letters I've received, yours made me cry—not bad but good happy-memory tears. Thank you. I know leaving us at this time was Daddy's own will—he was getting very frail and infirm and didn't like it one bit! When we were with him in April he was still able to dress up and come out to see us at our hotel—he only was really bad the last week or so in the hospital—so we all can be grateful the he was spared any long illness."
