Annette Funicello died. She was adorable in my favorite show at the time: The Mickey Mouse Club.
(Yes I am that old)
Rest In Peace, Annette. You will be remembered fondly by an entire generation.
God Bless You. And Thanks for all the great memories.

She was my heart throb when I was younger. I wanted to be adopted by Jimmy and Roy too so I could be in the club. That's a naive child thinking these kids were in some kind of foster family. I never got into the Beach Blanket stuff but she was an admirable person that put her family ahead of any career. She was out of sight, but never forgotten.
ReplyDeleteDouldn't wait to get home from school and run through the chores so we could watch the Mouseketeers. She was cute as a button and all our heart throbs. Until Sky King came on and Penny was in the scene...
