  1. Jo-Dennison Carroll died October 19. Not a long acting career, but she was leading lady in a Gene Autry western.

  2. Thanks for the heads-up Will. I found an obit and posted it above. I saw her name a few days ago but all they talked about was her Miss America title so I didn't check her out. Thanks again. Tom
