I saw many of her movies. I enjoyed her performances and singing.

I see they are plugging the old myth that Doris saved her son Terry Melcher from becoming a Charlie Manson victim by getting him to move house. Manson myth number 989. Manson knew that Melcher lived in Malabu in 1969. If he wanted Melcher dead he knew where to find him.

Oh, no Another icon passes. I was a fan of hers. Thank you for letting us know.

Yes, I do. The first time I met her was in 1956. Dad was doing some show work for Frank Sinatra and crew, so we had occasion to travel to the Sands in Vegas. I met her there. She was a wonderful person. That came across instantly. Her husband, on the other hand, was a creep. Everybody knew that he was robbing her blind, well, he and Rosenthal. No one could say anything negative about Marty to her. Well, anyway, that was not a nice part of life for her, as she would find out later. The picture below is Doris Day and Lauren Bacall with Frank leaning in. This pic was taken at the Sands on 14 September 1956. She was so damned cute and I, a 16 year old kid, was instantly in love.

She was just ... too much. I feel sad.

My dad had a huge crush on her.
