"He was very proud of me. He loved this show, and he was a kind man, a very accepting man. There was not one bone of judgement in his body," she continued. "He was very funny. I think my brother Vance and I got our sense of humor from him."��
"We only took one family vacation. When I was a little girl, we came to this lot, to the Warner Bros. lot, and took the tour and went around. And now I work on the Warner Bros. lot and have my own stage with my name on it, so he was really proud of that," DeGeneres said. "Before he passed away, I got to talk to him, so I got to say goodbye to him, and I was leaving the building and I looked back and there was a rainbow over the Warner Bros. studio."��
DeGeneres' mom, Betty, appears in many episodes of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and is often seen sitting in the audience. See more on DeGeneres in the video below.��
