She aged very well.

Classic beauty can do that.

[Albion Wilde]

I read on Wikipedia that she played David Hasselhof’s mother on Baywatch.

I used to love that show when I was a kid. Never knew they were actually married. May she RIP.

Another show we used to watch was "The Millionaire."

Maybe they will put it on Netflix one of these days.

I always thought the car looked “Buickish”. My dad’s first new car was a ‘49 Buick convertable. The curves of the Kirby’s (and later Topper’s) car looked familiar.

I will never forget the first time I saw the TV show Topper.
In 1956, we had no TV, and were at the LaFonda hotel in Santa Fe NM. The TV was a black and white pay TV. Drop in a coin and you would get so many hours of TV.

Dad dropped in a coin and we watched Disney’s Rob Roy! A little later on came Topper and right in the middle of the show the TV shut down. Dad didn’t have any more coins either. Bummer.
It was a couple of years later dad finally bought a TV and we saw Topper again.

I had such a crush on Anne Jeffreys from Topper. Good-bye, lady.

[sparklite2]

Oh, yeah, I forgot about that. What a boozer.

Me too. She was probably second only to Grace Kelly in exuding grace and beauty (maybe superior to, come to think of it).

Makes me feel old.

John Beresford Tipton, Jr

I’ve remembered that name all my life. LOL

[MUDDOG]

I liked the million dollars, but I didn’t like the guy who delivered it.

He looked like the commies on other shows.

RIP. I discovered the TV show while watching late-night TV on the weekends in college, back in the early 80s. It was a terrific show, and later, I saw the movie, which was also great.

My dad had the hots for
Betsy Palmer on I've Got A Secret.

When we got our first TV, I moved into the living room. I loved all the cast in Topper, especially Neal. She was absolutely elegant. Had no idea she played in so many things. Also loved “The Millionaire” and “You Were There” “Space Cadet” “Flash Gordon” “Robert xx - the photographer?” “You Asked For It” “Sky King” “Preston of the Yukon”

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Impressive Nick,impressive.

Rod Serling had a brother named Robert who was an aviation writer.

Robert Sterling was Capt Lee Crane in the film version of “Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea”.

[Mark17]

Robert Sterling I don’t remember so much about (though I wonder if there was any relation to Rod).

Different spelling.

Penny hears a plane overhead and knows Uncle Sky is coming to rescue her.

“I’d know the Songbird’s engines anywhere.”

[Nifster]

A real loss.

Loved her work

May the angels sing her home
