Rose Marie passed away today at the age of 94 according to her website.
While the actress might be best known for playing the wise-cracking Sally Rogers on The Dick Van Dyke Show, she was already a veteran by the time she did that sitcom. I recently learned she was a child star who started to wow audiences at the tender age of 4. People would fill theaters to hear Baby Rose Marie sing and they got their money’s worth.
Eventually she dropped the Baby from her name, but that did not stop her from singing and acting. Something she would do for the rest of her life.
Something that came later in life was documentary she made her about her life in show business. She promoted Wait For Your Life on Twitter, where she interacted with fans. Then just last month, that documentary became a reality and she did several Q&A’s at screenings of that film. Proving that she never stopped until today, the day she died.
Today, let’s honor the enormous talent that she is and watch the many highlights from her 90-year career. That is quite an accomplishment.
