    Same here; I love that gag.

    Glad her suffering is over and she can now reunite with Uncle Walt.

    Loved watching her with the gang on The Mickey Mouse Club and the Beach Party movies were a hoot. But more than anything, I admired her positive attitude in dealing with MS and helping others who also had the disease. RIP, Annette, you will not be forgotten.

    That's exactly what I will remember her for. Her work was fun, but her attitude when faced with MS made her a woman to admire.
