Goodbye Annette

I was saddened to hear that Annette passed on today. She really was an iconic memory of my childhood. This is how I remember her:


To read that she is 70 years old makes me just shake my head. I know it was a long time ago, but it doesnt seem THAT long ago when Jimmy would announce, "Mousekateer Roll Call, Start off Now!" and she'd bounce in with ANNETTE.

after watching a YouTube Mary sent me the link to -- I have to correct myself and say it's "Mousekateer Roll call, COUNT (not START) off now"

"M-I-C See you real soon! K-E-Y Why? Because we like you! M-O-U-S-Eeeee" Love ya, Ms. Annette Funicello. RIP. (Did my tribute on Twitter as well)
