She was extremely cute, wasn’t she? And talented! She came along at a time when some syrup was needed, and she provided it in spades. 🙂  
PBS is (re-) running a documentary about her now. I think I’ll watch it. I (born 1945) barely remember her, and saw her mostly in old stuff when I was a kid.  
Now this old grampa is going to the other room and have his spirits lifted.  
Peace,
