Is it my imagination? She looks a bit like Nanzi P.

“Soap” was my favorite show of hers. Absolutely hilarious.

I thought she had already gone ‘toward the light’ a long time ago. She had great comic timing.

Just re-watched her in “Brazil”.
She was great, but I grew up with her on “Soap”.

And let's not forget Alfred Hitchcock's Family Plot. She was in movies that were directed by my two favorite directors of all time, Alfred Hitchcock and Terry Gilliam (Brazil/Time Bandits).

Buried toward the end is the fact that she and her husband had been married for 57 years:

“Survivors include her half-sister, Alice, and her husband of 57 years, David Christian. She met him at The Hampton Playhouse Summer Stock Theater, where he was the set designer and she the leading lady.”

“She was the love of my life,” Christian said. “We spent 57 beautiful, wonderful, loving years together, which I will treasure forever. I’ve been with Katherine since I was 19 years old. The night she died, I saw that the moon was exactly half-full, just as I am now … half of what I’ve been my entire adult life.”

Now all four parents on Everybody Loves Raymond are dead. Amy’s parents are still hanging in there.

I’m pretty sure she was on the last few seasons of”Coach” as well. She was good.
