“Frank taught me to swim. He’s the one who got me over my fear of water. I said, ‘I don’t like putting my face in the water, Frank; it scares me.’ He said, ‘Don’t worry. You’ll learn how to do it and you won’t be afraid. I’m telling you.’ He’d sit with me in the pool and hold me up, and he’d say, ‘Okay, put your face in.’ Like I was a baby. He treated me so gently, and he was so patient with me.”
—Gloria Delson Franks, ex-wife of Sammy Cahn, on an early weekend she and Sammy spent in the Springs with the Sinatras, at the Lone Palm (via fuckyeahthevoice)
