June Lockhart

[Tuffcookie]

I guess I am showing my age here...June Lockhart, of the Lassie TV show and many others, has passed away at age 100! I have to admit, I thought she had long ago, passed. She was also the mom in the TV show Lost In Space. R.I.P, June!

I thought she had passed away a long time also RIP

When I heard the news yesterday, I thought I'd heard she had died just a few days earlier.
RIP June.

But having a dog extends your life! See how Lassie helped her? Too many people around us dying-makes me feel old.

Love her in The She-Wolf of London. She also has a uncredited roll in A Christmas Carol along with her parents.

She seemed like a real nice lady. May she RIP. Thanks for the memories.

I adored Timmy and Lassie, often bawling my eyes out watching that show growing up. Even just the theme song got me going, lol. I believe it’s in large part where my love of dogs started, besides having my own dogs. I had herding dogs like Lassie, so it was something I could relate to pretty well as a youngster like Timmy.

Lost in Space was also a show I watched regularly (hey, we only had about four or five channels to choose from - everyone watched the same thing! ) but Mr Smith’s shenanigans always drove me crazy. (DH just reminded me that even the weight on the space ship was off because he stowed away!) The actor Mark Goddard who played Major Don West on the show was from my neck of the woods and recently died in 2023, also, at age 87.
