I think James was a wonderful actor! Not only was he amazingly handsome, but he always came off totally authentic. I will miss his great smile and wonderful face. XXXOOO Goodbye, James.
@Jill Peacock, WELL.... I DON'T THINK THAT APPLIED TO ALL ACTORS, BUT YOU ARE RITE PEOPLE DID ACT MORE LIKE THEY WERE PROUD TO HAVE DECENT MORALS, AND ACTUALLY DIDN'T ACT LIKE BEING A PIG WAS A VITURE
He's a true gentleman of the highest order! I admire his dedication to his craft in the movies. So happy he had a wonderful life with his love and family.
@@markharrison2544 It would be hard to be an actor, in bed with beautiful actresses, kissing and pretending to make love with each other. Not good on the marriage, but I am glad they stayed together, I hope they were able to work things out. His wife was so small and gorgeous. She did remind me of Audrey Hepburn, loved her too.
A wonderful tribute to a wonderful couple. I had the good fortune of meeting Mr. Garner on several different occasions. Never heard him say an unkind word about anyone. Always gracious, friendly and a true gentleman.
That was so beautiful. Still a bit teary eyed. I have been a fan for more years than I can count and still am. I am so sorry he is not still with us. I miss him still. May God continue to watch over his family.
I don't think James gave himself credit for being the man he was. He let men know that you can be a bit humble, fumble at times, and still be a man's man. I see him as a husband, father and a true hero. RIP
Garner was a very good actor. Kind of a people's actor, like John Wayne, not so much critically acclaimed but anything he was in you knew it was gonna be interesting and worth watching.
I've always liked James Garner as an actor very impressed that they have made their marriage last what ever it took and perfect song with Karen Carpenter her voice is magnificent !!
I don't know if you know, but even though Lois was Jim's first wife, he was her second husband. The older girl in this is Lois' daughter, Kim, from her first marriage
Sunshine Baker well, good thing Jim treated Kim just as good as he treated Gigi. A person who treats their step child as good as their birth child is a rarity. One of my brothers-in-law treats his two step children just like his own daughter. He doesn't care that he didn't help my sister make them. They are as much his kids as the daughter he had with my sister And I heard that Jim lost his mother at the age of five, and his step mother beat him. Thank God he didn't turn into a step father like that
I'm impressed with such intelligent refined comments regarding inferences and generalizations about people's lives that are based on sad conjecture. What should we assume about YOUR family, if someone had the misfortune to be involved with you? You must be quite the "catch".........!
I was lucky enough to meet the fabulous Mr. Garner at a talent/modelling convention in L.A. back in the mid-90s. As I taught classes in Media Acting I asked Mr. Garner if he might sign a photo to my class that I could display on my studio's "Hall of Fame." No sooner said than done. A beautiful inscription: TO ALL THE STUDENTS. BEST OF LUCK AND BEST WISHES (signed). I will treasure that photo forever. James Garner. Simply put: A class act. RIP Sir and God bless.
Nice Story , You Met Him at a Fashion Show ? Did You Know Mr Garner was a Fashion Model in His Early 20's , Before Acting , I'm Sure Many Woman Would Agree He Had the Physic , and I'm Sure it Helped to Pay Some of His Bills , What an Actor . . . .
I agree with you. That's how it was for my wife and I. Then she started putting herself first and then the marriage broke down severely. Marriage comes first then the children. That's not what I say that's what psychiatrists have learned studying husband wife dynamic
This brought a great to my eye. Their love shone out of each photo. He looked so proud of her, so pleased she was his wife, even after all the years. And she looked at him adoringly. He was a handsome guy, and she was good looking too and could have given Hollywood a run for it’s money. She had great legs in those photos of them at the beach. He could have had anyone in Hollywood and he chose the one he fell in love with at first sight. What a wonderful story.
What a good looking couple who looked so in love with each other. I wish that they had shown them together from the beginning, but perhaps that's how they preserved their marriage & family life.... by keeping it all private. God bless them both. May James Garner rest in peace . He was one of my best loved American actors.
this is so great - My Jimmy (an AR boy) and I met and also married in 2 weeks and were together until it was time to leave me from cancer right before our 50th anniversary. I will never remarry - Lois and I were indeed blessed women
I think Jim Garner was the handsomest man in TV history and probably the sweetest too. He was a wonderful actor and obviously a wonderful person. Rest is Peace
Wonderful....So incredible when Hollywood actors marry for life. He was a great actor and a great man. They were a beautiful couple. Smart man to stay with his wife!!
Thanks for dong this. I hadn't seen much of his wife in pictures. Love how you showed them from the early days all the way to about 2012. Definitely brought on that melancholy feeling. I would venture to say that James probably treated her like a gentleman should. May he rest in peace.
I AM CRYING WATCHING THIS ..JAMES GARNER HAS JUST DIED....WHAT A WONDER FULL ACTOR AND MAN...THANK YOU FOR ALL THE JOY YOU HAVE GIVEN ME IN MY LIFE....GOD BLESS YOU...AND ALL YOUR FAMILY...I WILL NEVER FORGET YOU...ANOTHER GREAT ACTOR GONE....R.I.P....
Really awesome compilation. I miss James Garner--aka Rockford Files. Had no idea about his family until watching this. Thank you annasumner for connecting all of this.
Hard to find love like this with ordinary people let alone in Hollywood! Truly a loving couple to the very end. Wonderful video and perfect song to go with it.
What a wonderfully gifted man he was. Absolutely irreplaceable !!!!! And on top of all that talent he was breathtakingly handsome !! Thank you Lord for making James Garner.
One of my all time favorite actors. Very much underrated. He made it look easy. RIP Mr. Garner. My condolences to his wife Lois and daughters Kim & Gigi.
@@FuturePast2019 She says no. She said they were both married at the time, and just didn't, although the two of them clearly had amazing chemistry. Also, she had a 2-year-old (-ish) daughter to think of during the making of that film (came out in 1964, her daughter was born in '62).
Priceless presentation and Perfect accompaniment of music. Another Angel Heaven gains and we lose but keep in golden memories. I know the inner pain his family may experience for I too lost my husband. Much positive Energy and Prayers to them.
@@jeannehageman3198 So true, never heard a bad word about either. Garner went the extra mile for his crew and co-stars, made sure they were treated and paid well.
James And Lois Garner, were devoted to each other. 56 years of marriage. Is a testament to their true loving ways. His background was a rugged one. And when he met Lois they realized that they had met their soulmate. God Bless James Garner. God bless his family. And watch over them.!!
Have long, long loved the years the public audience was blessed with James Garner!!! What a lucky Lady and beautiful family. He is much missed by this fan and viewer! He Was sooo gorgeous and unassuming.........
R.I.P. Mr Garner. You will not be forgotten. April 7th born people do fall in love at first sight. Glad this marriage lasted as long as it did. Peace wherever you are now.
I just watched a Rockford File. The girl on the answering machine said "I just found out you're an Aries". It's true, he really was an Aries, I'm just not sure if he had Venus rising ?
Thank you! wow, I'm very happy to hear that! No doubt he deserves it! I love Jim, a great actor and a wonderful person. And this couple is amazing. Thanks for the lovely comment!
Isn't it wonderful to find your soul mate that you love so much, that there is no one else to fill that special place in your heart. It appears that they made their marriage work and that they truly loved one another. I always thought James Garner was a class act from the beginning and if they were together for 56 years, that was a love made in heaven. I will miss his acting and many roles in films. May God Bless him in Heaven and he will be remembered by all of his fans as a great actor and a kind, decent man.
This was sweet, thanks for posting. I loved James Garner since I was a little girl. His passing broke my heart. I have just finished his memoir, "The Garner Files". If you are a fan, I highly recommend it! I know much more about him now and I love him even more. He would have made a great friend. (And yes, Mr. Garner, when I think about you, it is with a smile.).
Thanks so much for posting their story. Extremely happy to know he lived his personal life in a manner I would wish for him. He never disappointed me in any. TV or movie, and sure enough in real life, he was true to the character I have loved since Maverick TV days. loving memories from a hugh movie fan. RIP dear James Garner.
Now I'm going to watch Murphy's Romance for about the 15th time. RIP, James Garner. Thankfully we have enough movies and TV shows to not miss you too terribly much. :(
Great video. I have had a crush on James Garner since first saw him in Maverick TV show back in 1957 and I told him that in person when I met him back in 1978 while he was filming Rockford Files on Lankershim Blvd. In North Hollywood I was so thrilled to meet him. I have his autograph too and I am not even even an autograph person.... R.I.P. Mr. Garner You will be missed.
So sad to hear of James Garner's passing. Have always loved him from the tv shows of the 70's and so much more. He really was the most handsome man and he had a lovely wife, who he obviously loved and she him, this was a gorgeous tribute to them both, thank you for showing it.
How "coincidental" that, right after I had finished reading James Garner's autobiography, "The Garner Files," I should find this on my You Tube page!! In his marvelous book, he spoke so adoringly about his wife Lois, but rarely showed any of her photos. She's just a beautiful as he said she was. Thanks for sharing :)
I still try to catch any and all movies / series where he stars! What a man of class and dignity in a ruthless profession. They dont make them like him anymore. My hero!
How heartwarming to see that even in Holywood, it is possible for a couple to have a real loving marriage, not one that is only meant to last until the next actor or actress he or she falls in love with during filming.
It's possible, just very difficult. Too many people buy into so many lies about what's needed. Not to mention one of the worst lines I've ever heard regarding relationships was.. love is never having to say you're sorry. That is so wrong, sometimes you just have to say sorry that we have been fighting.
I always loved watching Jim Garner in Maverick and Rockford Files back in the 70's. Great actor and good man. Loved the Carpenters and it was a shame when Karen Carpenter died in the early 80's. My how the world has changed and I wish to go back in time.
Thank you so much for making this video. I loved it. Kudos to you! I was part of a group that just sent in a petition to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to get Jim an honorary Oscar. I hope the Academy awards the Oscar to Jim. It is long overdue and richly deserved. Jim and Lois define class and character. Perfect choice of music also. Thanks again.
He was a class act from start to finish, RIP Jim.
Always loved James Garner! So happy to find out that he was a loving husband and father! So rare in Hollywood!
One of Hollywood's great love stories THAT LASTED.
James was a real gentleman. the real deal.
How you said 'James was a real gentleman. The real deal', I love it. It really seems so.
I think James was a wonderful actor! Not only was he amazingly handsome, but he always came off totally authentic. I will miss his great smile and wonderful face. XXXOOO Goodbye, James.
Very Handsome couple...Lois had a great likeness to Audrey Hepburn...beautiful
ME tooo, I second that
They even look happy together. Ahhhhh the good old days. When people actually had feelings, were sincere and down to earth.
@Jill Peacock, WELL.... I DON'T THINK THAT APPLIED TO ALL ACTORS, BUT YOU ARE RITE PEOPLE DID ACT
MORE LIKE THEY WERE PROUD TO HAVE DECENT
MORALS, AND ACTUALLY DIDN'T ACT LIKE BEING
A PIG WAS A VITURE
@@cantseeneedcapsWhy shout?
Such a handsome man, a gentleman - and in all his years in "the business," never the tiniest breath of a scandal.
Prayers for his loved ones and fans.
He's a true gentleman of the highest order! I admire his dedication to his craft in the movies. So happy he had a wonderful life with his love and family.
He separated from his wife twice due to his multiple affairs.
@Cher L. Yeah, I'd love to see some proof of this, in any case their love and commitment was strong enough to deal with any kind of turmoil..
@@markharrison2544 It would be hard to be an actor, in bed with beautiful actresses, kissing and pretending to make love with each other.
Not good on the marriage, but I am glad they stayed together, I hope they were able to work things out.
His wife was so small and gorgeous. She did remind me of
Audrey Hepburn, loved her too.
Evan Arapis h
James is so amazingly handsome in these photos, and she seems SO RIGHT for him. a very feminine woman; reminds me of Audry Hepburn.
He said this when he saw her, but she had a fuller figure.
A wonderful tribute to a wonderful couple. I had the good fortune of meeting Mr. Garner on several different occasions. Never heard him say an unkind word about anyone. Always gracious, friendly and a true gentleman.
God Bless, the world needs more good men like him.
James Garner was true blue, and did not take advantage of his fame. Disney should have put him in a movie.
James Garner had a humbleness that made him good at what he did.
I ADORE HIM AND I WATCHED ROCKFORD FILES EVERY DAY SINCE 1993 AND I MISSED HIM. RIP MR. JAMES GARNER
He will forever be Jimbo Rockford for me, it's the first thing I ever saw with him in it, he reminded me of my Godfather, love him !
I loved his films especially when he played opposite Doris Day xx
First I’d ever seen or heard of his wife - she better looking on his arm than 75% of the divas on screen. Wonderful to know he was REAL.
Totally thinking same thing. She absolutely gorgeous

Great man loved him and his work!❤️❤️❤️
He has his hand or arm on her in every photo, that's a man who truly loves his wife.

Truly! So refreshing to see, it makes me wonder deeply about how their relationship worked so well. Both wonderful people, I'm sure.
@@sparra3819 Yes. Doris Day said she was so attracted to him, tried to seduce him when they made movies together. He absolutely would not cave in.

How heartwarming to see that even in Holywood, it is possible for a couple to have a real loving marriage, not one that is only meant to last until the next actor or actress he or she falls in love with during filming.
Can't even come close to a love like that today.
