I remember Gale Storm rather vividly from MY LITTLE MARGIE, but haven't seen her in anything in years until earlier today. A very likable performer and comedienne who I remember playing a young woman when I was young. This makes me feel very old. I am happy she enjoyed a long and full life.

She's one of those people like Gary Moore who, once their shows were off the air, vanished and faded quickly out of the public consciousness.

She was sharp as hell, but declined due to physical issues that prevented her from doing any more public appearances. We had a nice chat about Joe Newman, Mike Mazurki and Dennis O'Keefe, etc. She really enjoyed both ABANDONED-her favorite movie that she appeared in- and BETWEEN MIDNIGHT and DAWN. I distinctly remember her remarking, "I am so glad you didn't call to ask about REVENGE OF THE ZOMBIES! I believe Tom Weaver spoke with her recently. She was a very nice person who will be missed by family, friends and fans. R.I.P. Gale

Spot on, Mr Klein... and quite the tribute on it's own. RIP, Ms Storm. Thanks for making me laugh every week. Those shows will live forever. D'Entre les Morts, Cinemacabre

Shocked to see she was 87 but I guess I shouldn't be. I've managed to pick up several DVD's of Margie episodes but the Oh! Susanna! series is almost impossible to find. Joe Busam

For the longest time all I could find was a series that only had two episodes per disc. Joe Busam

My Little Margies out on 3 episode DVDS in Canada at Dollerama , and I think that the shows are still good with the humor more warm hearted than todays. What a shame theres not a 50s TV Station, but i guess theres not enough nostalgic geezers. RIP Ms Storm, you are better than any of todays crowd.

I told her it had been on TCM a few days earlier and I'd recorded a perfect copy, and that I wanted to send it to her -- maybe it would jog her memory. She said, "Dear, I WATCHED it on TCM the other day. That's how I KNOW that I remember absolutely nothing!" She sounded very nice and very sweet and -- after starting out by saying she didn't give interviews any more -- ended up by saying that she wished she had remembered something and could have given me an interview! One of her OH SUSANNA (sp?) episodes found her visiting the Hal Roach Studios and getting onto the set of THE VEIL; Boris Karloff played a dual role in the episode (himself and a rifle-wielding madman).

I checked and found it that her hubby won the name Terry Belmont. I was afraid it might have been Perfect Storm.
