Dawn Wells passed away this morning at the age of 82 from COVID-19 complications, according to her publicist Harlan Boll.
In 1964, she landed the role of a lifetime. Ever since then, she has been playing America’s Sweetheart on and off of Gilligan’s Island. Wells was the girl next door who was as sweet as her coconut pies.
Today, let’s remember her by singing the theme song and watching the show that made her an icon.
