    I had the great honor of being invited to Robert Dahdah’s big night at The Lamb’s Club. 

    What a night with a huge turnout.  You would immediately notice that every one there

    thought that they were his best friend because that’s how Bob treats people.

    His sister Margaret Fitzgerald pulled out all the stops.  The venue was beautiful, the flowers were gorgeous,

    and the food was devine. Music was played by the famous Tex Arnold, and many people gave great

    and really funny speeches such as: Roseanne Sheridan, Missy Porretta, Dirk Smillie and Don Emmons. 

    We all learned things about Bob Dahdah that we didn’t know before! What a night!

    Letters were read from Gwen Van Dam and Mother Dolores Hart.

    Robert Dahdah

    Robert Dahdah is an actor, director, songwriter and composer. 

     He has had such a varied and fascinating career that he is now being “immortalized”

    in theatre history books.  But I know him as the funniest and most talented man I’ve ever met,

    and I’ve met thousands of famous people from the vaudeville days until today.

    If there is a heaven for actors, then Robert Dahdah will be there singing with the angels.

    Not only is he talented, but he is also exceptionally kind and generous.
