Actress Linda Lavin is Mourned

While I didn't know the talented Ms. Lavin, I was so looking forward to getting to see her in 'real life' next month.

Steve and I are priority ticket holders for the January14th taping of the new show, Mid-Century Modern. From the creators of Will & Grace, the show follows three best friends — gay gentlemen of a certain age – who, after an unexpected death, decide to spend their golden years living together in Palm Springs where the wealthiest one (Nathan Lane) lives with his mother and a naked Gen Z housekeeper. With my love of most things Palm Springs, this show screamed my name.

Linda Lavin, who is firmly implanted in my memory, from my teen years, for her role in the TV show Alice, was to play the mother. The show is to be a modern take on the unforgettable Golden Girls.

I'm sorry for the loss her family and friends are experiencing. I'm saddened to miss the opportunity to have witnessed this award-winning, 87-year-old actress enchant a whole new generation of TV viewers.
