Professor

Here,
in the fading light of the St Loubes Cimetière,
lies The Man in the Silk Hat.

Distinguished in Europe,
damaged by the Great War,
disillusioned by America.

Tread softly,
for he is a Father of comedy
and deserves your respect.

For all he has done
and all he continues to inspire...

...merci toujours, Monsieur Leuvielle.
