Goodbye, Gale. God Bless
Rest In Peace, Gale. :'(
Watched MY LITTLE MARGIE when I was a very young kid and thought it was incredibly funny. It had memorable supporting characters--I liked episodes when Gale Storm/Margie would cook up schemes with the elderly neighbor, Mrs. Odetts/Gertrude Hoffmann (THE APE, 1940) or with Willie Best (FACE OF MARBLE, 1946). Later in her career, had more good support--Gale co-starred with Zasu Pitts (Erich von Stroheim's GREED, 1924) on THE GALE STORM SHOW. Miss Storm was a talented singer and actress. Rest well, Gale--you were one of the sweetest ladies on '50s tv.
