I know Rose from the Dick Van Dyke show.
She was very good.
RIP

They did a showing of the documentary about a month ago just down the street in Encino, CA. She attended in person, as her home was about 3 miles away.
She was there the day I got thrown out of the UN.
RIP.
She was in “International House” (1933) with W.C. Fields! The plot involves television and helicopters!
Although you did qualify it with “adult,” Larry Matthews, who played Ritchie, is still alive at 62.
Think about this: born in 1923, doing Vaudeville in 1926, a radio star in 1928. Records, movies, TV.
Still doing Twitter in 2017, almost to 2018.
Nobody can top that.
Given how old she looked, I’m surprised she made it past the 60’s, 70’s. Good for her.
Besides DVD, I’ll always remember her guest appearances on the Monkees.
And “Hollywood Squares.”
RIP, Rose Marie.
I remember her appearance in that episode of The Monkees too. Does anyone know the story behind the little bow in her hair? I read once that she said it had a meaning, but she didn’t want to say what it was.
Millie (Ann Morgan Guilbert) died a year and a half ago, June 14, 2016.
I read that the bow in her hair was a tribute to her late husband.
I had heard this went back to her days as a child star, but all the references I find online say she wouldn’t reveal the meaning of the bow because it was something very personal. I don’t know if she ever wore it before the Dick Van Dyke show but that started in 1961 and her husband didn’t pass away until 1964. It could still be a tribute to him though.
Where she once said her full name was “Rose Marie Toblock.”
One of the old time greats.
Jerry Paris, aka “Jerry Helper,” her husband on DvD, died 31 March 1986. Quite a career, but I remember him best as one of Robert Stack’s men on The Untouchables.
AppearanceS. She was in at least two. Monkee Mother and The Monkees In A Ghost Town.
Yeah she confirmed in the documentary that it was a tribute to her husband.
Boy, she could really belt out a song as a little girl! Her only rival in this department was the great Mitzi Green, another New Yorker, who died way too young at age 49.
So long, Sally, I’m sure you and Buddy are teamed up again and have the helmèd cherubim and sworded seraphim rolling in the aisles in Heaven.
The Ghost Town one is what I remember. I’m sure I saw Monkee Mother, but I don’t remember it. Will have to look it up.
See link to the episode in post #19.
Thanks. I do remember that now.
