The Great One

Who comes to mind when I say "The Great One"? This is a generational thing and your age probably dictates who "The Great One" is.
I googled the phrase. The first hit refers to Wayne Gretzky. My boys were big hockey fans and they would probably think of him if I used that phrase. I remember Jackie Gleason as "The Great One". He had a variety TV show in the 60's and his Honeymooners series still plays somewhere in TVLand reruns.

Google did not reveal the person most recently dubbed "The Great One". Jon's old friend was in town. They have been friends about 60 yrs. His family is like our family. We had breakfast with his sisters and brother in-law Tuesday. Dick told us (his wife) Peg had a new title: "The Great One". They had their great grandchild baptized last weekend. Peg sat with the three year old big sister, their great-granddaughter, during the service. This little girl stuck by her and differentiates between her multiple grandmas and ggrandma by calling her "The Great One". Cute.
It'll be a few more years before we have great-grandchildren. We're anxiously awaiting our daughter's Dr. appt. next week when the Ultrasound should tell if Little A & Little B are boys, girls, or a boy & girl. Whatever they are, they will be great ones.
