Loni was quite the knock out, back then. This is who I rated much higher than Farrah Fawcett. Stratospherically higher!

[No name given]

Rest In Peace, Loni.

They used to come in ‘Threes’
Now
They come in Thirteens.

Beautiful woman. Lots of hairspray in that day. Dated Burt Reynolds. Made a couple?movies with him.

In WKRP days “Jennifer or Bailey” was the “Ginger or Mary Ann”.

I saw her at the 2011 DragonCon parade.

I agree, she was a stunner! Her sense of comedic timing was another one of her gifts. RIP.

Very sad.

79 is the new 90.

RIP Loni.

Loni didn’t just date Burt ... she was married to him for several years.

Jenniifer or Bailey ? Ginger or Mary Ann?

Loni was quite the knock out, back then. This is who I rated much higher than Farrah Fawcett. Stratospherically higher!

Didn't ever think she was pretty and never understood the attraction to her or Fawcett.

Victoria Principal on the other hand...

That reminds me of this old horror movie from 1960.
Maybe you’ve heard of it.
“13 Ghosts!”

Two of the large group of cast members were famous in their own rights.
Martin Milner, later on played a Cop in Route 66 and later in Adam 12.
and Margaret Hamilton, who played The Wicked Witch in
the original Wizard of OZ. Witchy roles were the only thing she was still being offered by 1960.

She married Burt Reynolds, AND they divorced. They also adopted a son.

[bleach]

You beat me. Still a valid question.

RIP Loni. Such a beautiful smile.

The boomer actors are aging. It’s going to be a horror show the next ten years.

VP beats Farrah or Loni.

I had to look VP up, it’s been a long time since I heard that name.

She was married to Bert Reynolds. I watched an episode of Gas Monkey garage where they were building a Trans am remake of the Bandits car. Richard got Burt Reynolds to sign the glove compartment. Reynolds said Loni would go shopping and drop $20,000 in one day.
