I agree with a fellow guestbook signer, when the film frame freezes at film's end of Planes, Trains and Automobiles and Uncle Buck, I lose it, my wife loses it. My whole family loves this guy and my 10 year old son has been on a self-induced Uncle Buck marathon this past week. I think seeing this man onscreen, how he carries himself and the way his characters treat others, is how we would like to be treated. He has a genuine warmth, kindness, and humility people gravitate to. There is so little of it in daily life, when you see him in a film we are reminded this is the way we're supposed to be, that kindness doesn't cost a dime, only your time. Very few actors in the history of film-making evoke humor, happiness and pathos as John Candy did. It's no coincidence John appeared in more of Writer/Producer/ Director, John Hughes' films than any other actor. Hughes saw the light in John, an every man quality inside John, and thank God Hughes did, because we have the benefit of these wonderful films to view over and over. I miss this man, and actor very much, he should be planning for his next film right now. His infectious smile and a heart the size of Texas I miss most of all. It's nice to know I'm not on an island, there are others like me who watch his films again and again. When I look at JC, I see someone who is so much more than just another actor spewing lines onscreen. What I love and enjoy most about John Candy and from watching his films can be summed-up best by John himself: "Cause I'm the real article. What you see is what you get." God Bless You, John and Your Family, too.

Miss him every time we turn on a movie of his. He could have done so much more...but his legend lives on. There's nothing like a good John Candy movie to make you feel warm and cozy. Je n'oubliez pas.

A Great Site Dedicated to a Great Canuck. We miss John Candy Eh!. But thanks to this great site it helps to keep his memory alive. That and when you press the play button and he makes you laugh!. Hard to beleve its been almost 14 years since his passing. Anyways keep up the good work and I like the Canadian Maple leaf beside every bookmark I think its a cool way to give tribute to a Canadian Hero!.
