When Betsy Palmer chose not to return as Pamela Voorhees for Freddy vs Jason, you filled the slot and entered slasher-film history.
In addition to that brief yet coveted role, you starred in other noted productions, covering horror, action, comedy, Hallmark drama and exploitation efforts that deserve equal acknowledgement.
They include Witchfire, Night Creep, Chupacabra Terror, Communion, R.L. Stein's The Haunting Hour, Insomnia, Savage Streets, Reindeer Games, Ignition, Chatterbox, The Centerfold Girls, The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, It Was Always You, Coming Home for Christmas, Picture a Perfect Christmas, Five Star Christmas and Debbie Macomber's A Mrs. Miracle Christmas, with special-guest roles on The X-Files, Day of the Dead, Van Helsing (2017), The New Addams Family, Barney Miller, Three's Company, Some Assembly Required, and long-term appearances as Mrs. Young on Mr. Young and as Charlotte Jeffers on Cedar Cove.
You did what any serious performer should. You worked and delighted audiences, and the fruits of your labor paid off: an ungrudging testament for anyone whose passion is to entertain.
