Original caption

Three beloved icons from 'Home Alone 2' are no longer with us Rest in Peace to Tim Curry, Brenda Fricker and Catherine O'Hara. Three incredible performers who each became legends in their own right. Catherine O'Hara gave us the unforgettable Kate McCallister. Brenda Fricker brought warmth and heart to the Pigeon Lady. And Tim Curry gave us the endlessly memorable concierge, Mr. Hector. Their careers stretched far beyond 'Home Alone 2: Lost in New York', but every holiday season, millions of us return to that movie and find the same familiar comfort we've felt for decades. We hear the music, see the snowy streets of New York, and watch these performances over and over again. Thank you for making the holiday season special ❤️🎄 #HomeAlone2 #HomeAlone #CatherineOHara #BrendaFricker #TimCurry
