SADA THOMPSON 1929-2011




Of course I haven't see everything she did, but whenever I did see her, be it in Andre's Mother, Pollock or as Kate Lawrence in Family, I was instantly transfixed by her presence. 





THIS ONE HAS PUT ME OVER THE EDGE.

  1. They say things happen in threes so let's hope that judging by this and your previous posts, that we don't hear any more sad news.

  4. That is sad news. She always let Buddy have it when she'd break in to the liquor cabinet.

  5. The only reason I really watched "Family" was to see her. Oh, yeah, maybe to see that blonde guy in a swimsuit too.

  6. :( The sound of her voice was always so comforting.

  7. I think she was the last TV Mom that didn't live in slacks or pants. She always wore a dress.

    On the other hand, two of the three children in Family, as real live people, turned out to be lesbians. Hummmm.
