Sorry to hear of the passing of Sheila MacRae. I met her, along with Gordon, when I was fourteen. My parents took me to see their nightclub act at the Flamingo in Las Vegas. I was a great fan of Gordon already because of the films OKLAHOMA! and CAROUSEL, and I had just gone through multiple leg and foot surgery. Mom and Dad thought that the show would lift my spirits, and they were right. The show was great fun, and we were able to visit backstage and take photos with Gordon and Sheila. I remember Sheila as friendly, funny, gracious, and talented. Heather was there briefly, and also very kind. Sincere condolences to the family.

Nice that you got to meet them. I remember the MacRaes as a fixture on the TV variety show circuit when I was a kid. Wonderful that she enjoyed a long, full life.
