Farewell Andy Hardy
Despite his diminutive stature at only five feet three,
Mickey made a fabulous film and television career reality.
His first stage appearance as a toddler we would see.
The world best knew him in the role of “Andy Hardy”.
There were many ups and downs through the years of his life.
Unbelievably, Mickey overcame a lot of bad luck and strife.
In Hollywood, he stood out among many of the best.
At the ripe age of ninety-three, Mr. Rooney is laid to rest.
Mickey Rooney
(1920-2014)
