I especially loved her in The Glenn Miller Story. That's one of my all time favorite movies. She was also fabulous in Strategic Air Command and The Stratton Story, two more movies she made with Jimmy Stewart. They were such a great team.

Thanks for sharing that story, Sherbabe. Very revealing--and confirms what we all must have thought about who she really was. A genuinely nice person who could be your best friend if she lived next door. She lived a long, good life and I hope that her passing was not difficult. I enjoyed all her movies and remember that Glenn Miller one well, too.

Oh my! Cable, that is young, IMO, too. (I'm 58; this is making me pause.)

Well, they did live the rock lifestyle--maybe that shortened their lives.

Sad to come back and read about Jan Murray and June Allyson, etc. Sigh.

I always remember him as the grandfather in The Lost Boys. And in the Sister Act movies.

I remember him from a show he had on tv for a short time. I think it was called Doc.

'Bewitched's' Louise Tate Dies at 80 Kasey Rogers, an actress who was a regular on television shows like "Bewitched" but was best known for an appearance in Alfred Hitchcock's "Strangers on a Train," has died. She was 80. Rogers died July 6 at USC University Hospital from a stroke, said her companion, Mark Wood. Using the name Laura Elliott, Rogers played Farley Granger's estranged wife, Miriam, who is strangled by the psychotic character in "Strangers on a Train." "For decades, no one realized Laura Elliott and Kasey Rogers were the same woman," Wood told The Los Angeles Times. "All of a sudden, Hitchcock fans were coming out of the woodwork. They wanted to know what happened to Laura Elliott." Born Imogene Rogers on Dec. 15, 1925, in Morehouse, Mo., Rogers moved with her family to Burbank as a child. She earned the nickname Casey, a reference to "Casey at the bat," because of her hitting prowess in grade-school baseball. Later she changed the C to a K.

Oh, I loved watching her as Louise Tate, and now she's gone. I guess she'll be joining all the other cast members of Bewitched who left us too soon. Found this interview she did about what it was like working on Bewitched. http://www.bewitched.net/kasintrv.htm

It wasn't too long ago I watched his Oscar performance in Sayonara. I loved him in Hatari with John Wayne; I think he played a character named 'Pockets'. Very, very good actor.

I don't generally comment on the passing of actors and actresses, but this one got me. I loved Red Buttons.
