R.I.P. - Annette Funnicello

Post by Eman » Mon Apr 08, 2013 8:46 pm

Just heard on the radio that 50's-60's icon Annette Funnicello has died today. She died peacefully at Mercy Southwest Hospital in Bakersfield, Calif., of complications from multiple sclerosis which she had been fighting for the last 25 years. She was one of the original Mousketeers on the Mickey Mouse Club in the 50's and had hit records in the mid 50's and early 60's.

I remember Annette Funicello, and I saw Judi Martino's post on facebook announcing her death. Very sad.

That is sad--I had no idea she had been ill for so long--I remember her well, from the days of Bobby Darin, Sandra Dee, Tommy Sands, etc etc.
