That is a shame. I always liked her and 76 seems too young.

This was sad. She was always a sweetheart.

$300,000,000 on thighs. Good for her. She was before my time, but I watched her on Step By Step. She wasn't my favorite TV mom, but I liked the show a lot. 76 seems young for how fit I would think she'd kept. I guess I'll watch the last season.

I've always heard of this movie, but never actually had the chance to see it. That small skit though, it's funny seeing all those actors so young! I'm definitely going to have to watch this.

EDIT: Also... those cars are awesome. It was 73, and most of those seem to be late 50s / early 60s cars... so they were only ~20 year old cars... they were probably all just low mileage cars they found for the show. That's awesome.

I think I read somewhere that it said she died from cancer.

It is certainly worth watching. I had just finished High School when it was released and although the film was set a decade earlier, we were still living like that out on the edge of Phoenix.

I did not think much of her character on 3's company and also never really found her all that attractive afterwards, but I guess I never was able to shake the 3's company dumb blonde bit from her later roles....
76 isn't young. Lots of miles involved there, more so than the time.
RIP another of my generation gone.
(I watched a Sherlock Holmes movie last night and had to explain to my wife that it was Basil Rathbone in the lead role and what a successful actor he was. She had never heard of him)

She would have been 77 today.

Friggin' cancer! I recall Playboy publishing her initial Playmate photo test about 1980 or so. She was a pretty hot topic back then so of course I ran right out and bought one. Eventually she got to do it right somewhere in the mid 80's I think. RIP Suzanne..

I'm sorry that she had to endure cancer. She probably would have lived to a ripe old age if not for that, since she seemed to be in good physical shape, otherwise.

I never thought she was all that, but she was still a roaring success at what she did. I'm still sorry she had to go out that way.
