Rich Polk Catherine O’Hara, who died in January at 71, was honored Monday night at the 78th Emmy Awards by her three former on-screen children Macaulay Culkin, Annie Murphy and Dan Levy.
Culkin opened the tribute, describing his “Home Alone” mom as “encouraging,” “warm” and, of course, “funny.”
“She wasn’t just a wife and mother to Bo and Matthew and Luke. She was my mom. She was our mama,” he said. “And by extension, she’s all of our mama. By the way, call your mother tonight. Give it up for moms. But like a good mama, she always showed up when I asked her to. Because that was Catherine. That’s what she did. She showed up. And this is the best that we can do for her tonight.”
