I have been a longtime member of the Sons of the Desert and through my organization of meetings, banquets and conventions got to know most of the Our Gang Members and Hal Roach employees fairly well. I have been working on getting permission to add a headstone or marker at the grave of Mickey Daniels who's grave is unmarked for several years now. That has finally happened and I am on the way to getting a marker. If you would like to contribute to this fund the link is below. Thank you in advance for your support. Please share with anyone you think might be interested in helping out. Thank you, Robert "Bob" Satterfield www.gofundme.com/f/mickey-daniels-little-rascals-headstone?fbclid=IwAR1dxuS21AQxD5VW-iCvaGGdOGvaKyrOO2krWxhoICAvxGj6pG9JhKOV76s |

Indeed.
Wondering if Bob saw "Stan and Ollie" and if so, what his take was...

The fundraising for Mickey's headstone is completed. Thank you to all who donated. Thank you Farina for the kind words.
malaria I saw "Stan and Ollie" five times at the theater and own a DVD of it. Loved every minute!

I just saw this. What a wonderful thing. If there are more unremembered rascals, I'd be happy to pitch in. They gave us so much joy and Mickey was one of the greats.
