    Right about this time, I worked at a dinner theater in Ohio while attending college. Ms Vance was the star of the dinner show (can't remember the name of the production). She was always ready early before any performance started, and we always had a lull just after setup when the guests arrived and were seated, so she scooted back to the kitchen area by the coffee machine where we waited. She introduced herself to all the kitchen staff, learned all of our names and was just a delight to talk with while she had, of course, a cup of coffee with us! We teased her that it wasn't Maxwell House, just a wholesale restaurant brand that was made by the gallons. It was good coffee, though. Since most of us were college or high school students, she encouraged us to complete our educations. Always smiling, in a bright, good mood and a quick laugh, just a wonderful woman!

      @@HopefulInterventions By your logic all people need to be put out to pasture after 80?! Her death was untimely, because her death was accidental at the hands of incompetent doctors who panicked and waited to call an ambulance when they performed an unscheduled procedure that went wrong. Joan was still a very active and healthy woman and did not die due to old age. It was not her time...her death could've been prevented!
      My grandmother just turned 95 and losing her would be just as painful now as it would be at 105....living a long life doesn't make their exit any less painful or important! Unfortunately too many people nowadays don't value our elderly as they should, but see them as a burden or nuisance...

    I used to watch this show in the morning, I guess it was syndicated. People have forgotten about it. Including Joan. She probably developed her complex because she has a strong, buxom body, except for the bosom, and a narrow but glamorous face, very distinctive look she should have kept.

    Thanks once again Chronic Nostalgia. A talk show host, a stripper, and an old hoofer walk into a bar... Can you imagine nowadays having such a diverse line-up on a talk show? I miss those times when people could accept politically-incorrct and quirky humour without wanting to cancel everything, or even worse as we've recently seen on the Oscars, physically assaulting those with whom we disagree, Can you imagine Cher showing up in a Native American head-dress nowadays? The world has lost it's sense of humour, (Canadian spelling), along with it's mind!
