[> Re: [ Beverly Tyler , 1927-2005 (78) ] R.I.P. -- Joe H., 12:49:14 05/16/12 Wed [1]

I see that all of the characters in this episode of "Vengeance" are dead now.

Here's some info about: Beverly Tyler: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0878778/bio

"...Beverly also sang on TV on such variety shows as "Cavalcade of Stars"* and "Shower of Stars."
...this lovely sparrow did not settle down in marriage until 1962 (at 35) when she wed comedy writer/director Jim Jordan, Jr. ("The Colgate Comedy Hour"), who was the son of the famous "Fibber McGee & Molly" radio couple. Beverly instantly retired from the business and together the couple produced a son. The only performing she has done over the years was to appear in a few local theater productions in Reno, Nevada, having moved there in 1972. Her husband later became a developer. Beverly died at age 78 of a pulmonary embolism on November 23, 2005, and was survived by her son, James W. Jordan, and three step-daughters...."

&

"Beverly's husband, Jim Jordan, son of the original "Fibber McGee and Molly" actors, died on Christmas Eve 1998, at their home in Reno, Nevada from a heart attack. He was 75. Jim Jr. worked in TV, helming "The Texaco Star Theater", "The Colgate Comedy Hour" (1950) and numerous Bob Hope specials before retiring and becoming a successful land developer in Reno in 1972. They had four children - a son and three daughters."

So which one was it of when he died? Dec. 23rd, or 24th?

* http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0041015/ "...This was a true variety show, With a magic act, a trampolining act, comedy skits, Singing and Drama. It was broadcast live, and some mistakes are made. The show is very rare, and it should be noted that only a handful of episodes exist. After the DuMont Network went bankrupt, nobody preserved the kinescope recordings, and most were dumped into the east river in the 70's. Overall, it's an enjoyable TV series, and it's a shame most of the surviving episodes are not on DVD."

** Beverly was in Episode #2.8 of 27 Oct. 1950 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1471480/

**** http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auld_Lang_Syne
"for (the sake of) old times".
"At New Year

"Auld Lang Syne" is traditionally sung at the conclusion of New Year gatherings in Scotland and around the world, especially in English-speaking countries.

It is common practice that everyone joins hands with the person next to them to form a great circle around the dance floor. At the beginning of the last verse, everyone crosses their arms across their breast, so that the right hand reaches out to the neighbour on the left and vice versa. When the tune ends, everyone rushes to the middle, while still holding hands. When the circle is re-established, everyone turns under the arms to end up facing outwards with hands still joined."

"The song is sung in many of the films produced by Frank Capra, including Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936), Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) (during Jefferson Smith's acceptance speech for his new appointment to the US Senate), and It's a Wonderful Life (1946) (the second song sung after George Bailey's brother returns at the end of the film)."
