Catherine O'Hara

Who couldn’t love Catherine O’Hara?

In every performance, she rocked.

The news of her death, unexpected,

Left her fans and her co-workers shocked.

 

“Home Alone” might have granted her stardom,

But her movies with Christopher Guest

Brought her comedy chops to the forefront

And, to me, those were some of her best.

 

Yet my favorite of all of the people

She inhabited while at her peak

Was, I’m sure you can tell by my rhyming,

Moira Rose, matriarch of “Schitt’s Creek.”

 

In this role, she was over-dramatic,

Clueless as to how she was perceived,

But despite how eccentric she played it,

She was someone we always believed.

 

Just to watch her you couldn’t help smile;

She brought joy that no one could resist.

Now the world’s mourning Catherine O’Hara,

Who will surely be very much missed.
