We've learned that LaVerne Thompson Beckmann of 'Lindsay, Laverne & Betty' (GENTS WITHOUT CENTS) died on Sept. 26.

Legacy Obit Tribute

LaVerne and her two partners were guests of the 2003 Three Stooges Fan Club Meeting, and they were a delight to everyone. Lindsay Bourquin died in 2004; Betty Phares is alive and well, and recently was an encore guest at the 2015 Three Stooges Fan Club Meeting.
