    Hi. Thank you so much for putting that up. I am one of Lois's few remaining family members and seeing this made me cry. She was, above all else, a wonderful and loving person....AND one of the hardest working people I have ever known. Her life was not easy, but she was an example of honesty in creativity that I use every day in my life. Again, on behalf of myself and my family, thank you for this wonderful tribute to my aunt.

      Mike Kovacs, Hi Mike. It was my pleasure to put this video together. My mom introduced me to Lois Nettleton when I was in high school and she has been my favorite actress ever since . Sadly, my mom passed away only a few months after Ms. Nettleton, so 2008 was not a good year. She also passed away from cancer. I have watched most of Ms. Nettleton's movies and TV appearances and have always been so impressed with her acting. It is interesting to see her many fans favorite movies and TV appearances on her memorial page on google. One that no one has mentioned that was one of my very favorites is a Route 66 episode called "What Would You Say if I Told You I Was the Queen of Spain? Her acting was so superb and such a memorable and interesting episode. FYI, I have most of all the DVDs of Ms. Nettleton's movies and TV appearances. The ones I don't have are not available. I will be doing another tribute highlighting some of my favorite TV appearances of your Aunt. Thanks again for your kind and warm comments.

    My favorite Lois Nettleton performance was a Then Came Bronson episode titled All the World and God. She played a nurse in a poor rural community. The doctor she worked with had just died and she has to make his rounds and tell their patients of his death. She comes to realize that these folks not only think of her as a caregiver but also a trusted friend. It’s a lovely episode that I haven’t seen in over 50 years but I remember it vividly. She was a real beauty and a wonderful actress.

    Just finished watching Lois Nettleton in one of the most classic Twilight Zone episodes: The MIdnight Sun. As a blonde she reminds me of combination of Barbara Eden and Joanne Woodward. This is a sweet tribute for such a sweet actress. By the way: there is absolutely no evidence anywhere that indicates her political leanings. Her role as a lesbian in the Golden Girls is called acting.

      Hi Eliza Dolittle. Just wanted to let you know that there is material on Lois Nettleton that states she was a liberal democrat. I did not put that in my video just because she played a lesbian in two TV series. During the 1960's and 1970's, there were many actors that described themselves as liberal democrats.
