She was a sweetheart......I think the first time I ever saw her was in an episode of the original Star Trek. RIP Teri, you were a delight.

I was shocked to see that she was 79.

 

[ted920]

79 but still too young.

She was great actress and pretty lady.

 

[HCCForever]

Always one of my favorites as well. Besides Tootsie and Young Frankenstein, I liked her in Mister Mom with Michael Keaton.

Mr. mom up there with Tootsie. Great movies. RIP

She started acting in '63.

She also guest starred in the "Gary 7" Star Trek episode that was actually a pilot that never caught on.

In memory of her. A classic.

RIP to a woman who brought so many great memories. Great comedic flair. Lovely in Young Frankenstein but I think I first remembered her in Close Encounters and Mr. Mom. Early on she danced in Elvis shows.

 

[Kolumbo]

Teri and David Letterman always had chemistry

 

[Ozimoto]

She was also in an episode of "The Twilight Zone" as I recall.

I am going to be curious how long the thread lasts. My last RIP lasted about half an hour.

 

[Bigboote]

Loved Teri. She was also a great guest many times on Letterman.

 

[JellyBean]

I always loved her. Teri, like Betty White, had that quick wit and great banter skills! Teri will be missed. I guess I will watch "Mr. Mom" in her honor. RIP, Ms. Garr.

One of my favorite flics is "Let it Ride" with Richard Dreyfus. A smaller role for her but very funny.

 

[GoUconn7961]

I loved her acting and she seemed like a wonderful person too. I may have to go watch Young Frankenstein again. They're all gone now.

 

[Forego]

Teri was every casting director’s dream actor. It was like the writers wrote the role for her, no matter how diversified her roles were. Loved her appearances in McCloud as Sgt. Norton. RIP Teri.

Wow. Great point. That hit differently now. They all are gone.

Yes, her Letterman interviews are gold. They are all on Youtube. She had a great sense of humor.

21 hours, apparently. I have no objection to moving the RIP threads. They kind of clutter up the main boards. I appreciate the fact that the mods left it in the form long enough to give people a chance to read and reply.

Let it Ride.

A friend posted elsewhere, "You made every scene better." It hadn't occurred to me until I read it. It rings true.

Teri was a fav of mine. I loved her happy face and voice.
