My teen idol......... my childhood idol....
I grew up in the 50's watching The Mickey Mouse Club 5 days a week....
all because of Annette.
Then she grew up, along with me, and did the Beach Party movies.... I saw them all.
She was an American treasure....
God bless her family and comfort them during these days.
(I have my childhood scrapbook that I made filled with Annette!)
(((hugs)))

I think she was everyone's idol -- at least everyone of a certain age. Girls wanted to be her and for boys -- well, we won't go there. And then later to be so courageous and strong. Yes, very sad.
ReplyDeleteLoved her, too.
ReplyDeleteA scrapbook even. What a treasure. I watched it too. I must admit was a little confronting that she died. Of course, she was a little older than I, but still, we lost part of our childhood with her. Fond memories. Milk toast compared to what kids are watching today.
ReplyDeleteLinda, thanks so much for visiting my blog. So appreciated.
