Two familiar faces from my "growing up with TV" era died earlier today.
Character actress Doris Singleton has died at age 92. A familiar voice on hundreds of radio shows like THE JACK BENNY PROGRAM, she became a familiar face on TV too. She's probably most-recognized as the competitive 'Carolyn Appleby' on I LOVE LUCY. Hundreds of TV appearances include the snobby fellow juror to 'Edith Bunker' on an episode of ALL IN THE FAMILY, and 'Chip''s mother-in-law in the last couple seasons of MY THREE SONS.
