Beautiful and perky Mary Tyler Moore has passed away today at age 80. She had suffered from diabetes since age 33 and complications from the disease has finally taken its toll.
I remember watching the Mary Tyler Moore Show every Saturday night in grade school up until high school. Her show came on right before The Bob Newhart Show and then The Carol Burnett Show. My saddest recollection: I can't remember the episode in 1974 but word came in half way through the show that my grandmother Anne had passed away.
I remember the final episode when she left the newsroom and turned out the light. An end to an era. She truly did turn the world on with a smile!
