It wouldn’t have been a surprise for Costello to retire to his home for a lengthy mourning period, and he later admitted he was tempted to do just that: “I asked myself, ‘Why did this have to happen to me?’ This time I confess I found it difficult to keep my thoughts upon counting my blessings. The baby was constantly on my mind. Every little boy that I saw reminded me of the many things I had planned to do for my son. There was sadness in my heart. How I managed to be a funny man in pictures and on the radio, I will never know.” However, World War II was at its height, and there was both a sense of shared grief and shared responsibility across the nation. After all, there were many other fathers living with sons who were missing or dead, and while Costello’s work might not be in a munitions factory, the duo’s funny routines gave those kinds of workers a chance to decompress after a long day, which helped them continue to do their jobs in the coming days.
