Memorial


I actually found the In Memoriam segment at this year's Oscar show probably one of the best because the Academy included almost just about every known actor/artist that passed away in the previous year and it was a tough year also for the loss of stars.

Here is the complete list of those featured in the order they appeared in the segment:

Bob Hope recieved a special memorial that was presented by Tom Hanks

Katharine Hepburn also recieved a special memorial that was presented by Julia Roberts.

The annual memorial was presented by Frank Pierson.
