Knew her well, back in the day. Her daughters and I were in the same elementary school.

Shit - I remember playing the lead in this little school play called “Bookworms Don’t Have to Bite.” We had one more performance added, for the head nun AND for June, who was tied up in filming during the other days. But by Jove she found time to drive back over to see the school play. I remember feeling a little bit intimidated having her in the audience. “Hey, I’m just here because my name is the same as the lead character!” But she was very supportive and kind as could be!
