SO LONG, SUE CASEY...


Even as a little boy, I couldn't help but be smitten by you. "The Beach Girls and the Monster" (aka "Monster from the Surf") became one of my favorites. You (and good ol' Kingsley the Lion) ensured it.


Over the years, I came to find you in other features, including the horror spoof, "Hysterical"; the chilling "Evilspeak"; "Aladdin and His Lamp"; "Son of Sinbad"; "Annie Get Your Gun"; "Paint Your Wagon"; "Flame and the Arrow"; "Rear Window '56"; "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty '47"; "Camelot '67"; "Secrets of Monte Carlo"; "Neptune's Daughter"; "3 Ring Circus"; "Jumbo"; "My Favorite Spy"; "Son of Paleface"; "Breakfast at Tiffany's"; "An American in Paris"; and "American Beauty". 


Your bubbly, irresistible demeanor made you unforgettable, even when filmmakers left you uncredited or cut your footage short. Nonetheless, you'll grace Heaven's starry credits now: a beaming beauty destined to outshine all others.
