GOODBYE, ELIZABETH MACRAE

You were a walking, talking pin-up, who graced a variety of famous shows and cherished movies.

Your most famous role, of course, is of sweet, Southern belle, Lou-Ann Poovie on Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C.

However, when you weren't catching Gomer's eye, viewers could find you on The Andy Griffith Show; The Fugitive; Route 66; Gunsmoke (in an assortment of roles, including Festus Haggen's gal, April); Bonanza; Rawhide; The Virginian; Death Valley Days; Maverick; Stoney Burke; Burke's Law; 77 Sunset Strip; Surfside 6; Hawaiian Eye; Dr. Kildare; Harrigan and Son; I Dream of Jeannie; Rhoda; The Untouchables; Judd for the Defense; The Verdict is Yours; Mannix; Barnaby Jones; Petrocelli; Kojak; The Asphalt Jungle; Naked City; Supernatural; and with substantial runs on the iconic, soap operas, General Hospital, Days of Our Lives, Another World, Guiding Light and Search for Tomorrow. 

Your movie roster is pretty darn impressive, too, as it features The Conversation; The Wild Westerners; Wild is My Love; Love in a Goldfish Bowl; For Love and Money; Everything's Ducky; Eddie and the Cruisers II: Eddie Lives!; The House of the Dead (aka Alien Zone); and Don Knott's family-fantasy classic, The Incredible Mr. Limpet, as the adorable, animated Ladyfish.  

Your career was diverse and because of it, delightful, having drawn admirers from every speck of the spectrum. Now, you'll soar in Paradise, Ms. MacRae: an angelic beauty, whose bounteous talents will only continue to grow in the hearts and souls of your doting fans.
