Suzane Pleshette Gone


LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Suzanne Pleshette, the beautiful, husky-voiced film and theater star best known for her role as Bob Newhart's sardonic wife on television's long-running "The Bob Newhart Show," has died, said her attorney Robert Finkelstein. She was 70.
Pleshette, who underwent chemotherapy for lung cancer in 2006, died of respiratory failure Saturday evening at her Los Angeles home, said Finkelstein, who is also a family friend.

We were watching "Support your local gunfighter" which she co-starred in, and were discussing her just a day or two ago. I mentioned the fact that Suzanne's voice had gotten so low in the last years, I thought she must have been a chain smoker. Since he died of lung cancer, maybe I was correct.

Along with "Sam the Butcher" from the BRADY BUNCH.

These things are so weird. Do you think they really happen in 3s?

"Support Your Local Gunfighter" is one of our favorite movies around here. I loved her in that!
