one of our posters on the Caylee forum made me aware of Mary's passing- as well as Henry Gibson from Laugh In passing away today as well.

I would've never guessed they both were already in their 70's.

Now that's 3 this week, sad for so many.

For Henry- I thought this was nice about the donations,

RIP, Mary :rose:

So sad indeed. When I was a little, Puff The Magic Dragon was my favorite song! I loved it and even now I tear up when I hear that song. I also loved Leaving on A Jet plane.
She helped create beautiful memories for so many people.

The group would reunite and perform special concerts over the years. I saw them on PBS.
