So Long to an American icon and maybe the most talented child star of all time.Those movies stand the test of time as well as any.Do yourself a favor and catch one if you can.She really could make you forget your troubles.Gonna have some animal crackers in my soup tonight

a little off hawaii topic - but Shirley Temple Black had a house in my area in cali ..... also a diplomat to Spain in later years - dont know about a connection to Hawaii

we made the joke - poor Shirley went from here to govt provided housing - in Spain......

Embodied ALOHA spirit in my humble opinion,also spent lots of time in HI.I was lucky enough to meet her in 94 at Lax she was on her way back from ...wait for it Kona

I believe Shirley Temple met her second husband, Charles Black, in Hawaii where he was involved in shipping.

Visited troops 1939/assistant to the pres of Hawaii pineapple co/etc many connections.told me it was her favorite place in the world and I'm pretty sure that by 1994 she had seen the world.filmed at least 1 movie there as well.so put the cherry juice in the 7 up and give her a big ALOHA toast

She only added to her reputation after she grew up and did nothing to tarnish the respect the public had for her. A life well lived, she will be remembered for a long, long time.
