Title: R.I.P. Mary Ann - Your 3 Hour Tour Has Come To An End
Post by: lbpesq on December 30, 2020, 01:57:09 PM

With all we hear about Jeannie/Ms. Eden around here, I thought it appropriate to acknowledge the passing of someone who played a similar role in my youth.  Ginger may have been "glamorous", but I had the hots for Mary Ann.  AKA Dawn Wells has passed away at 82 from Covid.  2020 sux!

May the Four Winds Blow You Safely Home

Bill, tgo

That's too bad.  :-[  I loved that show too, and her character as well.

Its fitting, and unsurprising that Barbara put a condolence post up today as well. It's a little depressing to realize the last few of her posts have been eulogizing lost friends and acquaintances. Chuck Yeager, Charley Pride, now Dawn. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=3875666819131920&id=151281694903803&__tn__=%2As%2As-R

The classic question "Ginger or Mary Ann?" never required any thought from me.  I'll miss you, Dawn!

I also instantly thought of WKRP Jan.  But then I am also one of those guys who has a crush on girl-next-door Jan from the Toyota ads. You gotta wonder how far a small boat in Hawaii could get in a 1.5 hour out from the harbor tour! Of course, there was that guy who spent months on his de-masted sailboat off the California coast a while back. Here it is a new year and I am rambling! Jeez, stuck at home too long.
