I think I must be the only American my age (i.e., damn old) who has never seen a minute of the Brady Bunch.

Anyway, she was obviously happy, influenced a lot of people positively, and you can't get a much better eulogy than that. Her good memory joins the ranks in Time's March.

Not sure how old you are Grandpa, but if you are 60 or older, there's a good chance you were not in the target age demographic for this show when it aired. My brother is 57 and never watched it. I am 53, and watched it religiously when it aired. I still like to watch it once in a while.

Well, you hit the nail on the head. I'm looking at my fifties in the rearview mirror.

I have a question- Did I read somewhere that Ann B. Davis was nun for a while? OR was it just my imagination.
Originally wanted to be a doctor and studied pre-med at the University of Michigan.
Joined an Episcopalian religious community in Denver, Colorado in 1974.
Lived with fellow parishioners near San Antonio, Texas, where she was involved in prayer, Bible study, and occasional charity works.
