Very strange.  I watched "The Bob Newhart Show" last night on the internet.  I have not seen the show in years.  I thought about how great to was to see Susanne again.  Now she is dead.

Very funny lady.  The widow of Tom Poston.

LOS ANGELES  —  Suzanne Pleshette, the beautiful, husky-voiced film and Broadway 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,

That dark hair, those eyes, that voice.

A true beauty.

Damn that sucks. I seems to remember her in a movie where she flew in a F8F Bearcat as an air racer. I found it in the IMDB database.

Yes, I was sorry to hear of her passing. She was both beautiful and talented. R.I.P.

I'll never forget the end of the second "Newhart" show when Bob woke up next to her and said the whole thing was a dream. That was hilarious.
Let nothing trouble you,
Let nothing frighten you. 
All things are passing;
God never changes.
Patience attains all that it strives for.

God alone suffices.
