I know you'll never read this, but I just want to say, I'm a huge fan. I have been since 1990. I first encountered you when Dad showed us That's Entertainment, very soon after we had moved to the US. You were singing "Honeysuckle Rose" in a beautiful white gown: it was a clip from Thousands Cheer. I thought, "Who is that beautiful singer?" Over the next few years, I was to learn more, and gain respect.
Now I have some of your recordings, and listen to them on a regular basis.
I loved your performance as Julie in the "Show Boat" vignette from Till the Clouds Roll By, although I understand why MGM didn't let you play the role in the the Show Boat film (But wouldn't it be so interesting if they had?).
You are classy and talented, and I hope you are healthy and enjoying life at 89.
Sincerely,
Kiti Fantastico
