Debbie Reynolds, Wholesome Ingénue in 1950s Films, Dies at 84 - New York Times

Ray moved to California when Mary Frances was 7, and the family soon followed. Her career dream was to go to college and become a gym teacher, she often said, but when she was named Miss Burbank 1948, everything changed. Two of the judges were movie-studio scouts, and she was soon under contract to Warner Bros., which changed her name.In 1950, she had her first screen credit in “The Daughter of Rosie O’Grady,” a musical comedy starring June Haver and Gordon MacRae. (Two years earlier she had a small uncredited part in “June Bride.”) The same year, she played Helen Kane, the 1920s singer known as the boop-boop-a-doop girl, in “Three Little Words” and also appeared in “Two Weeks With Love,” in which she sang “Aba Daba Honeymoon” with Carleton Carpenter. The song became a huge novelty hit.Her roles seemed to mirror 1950s attitudes toward love, marriage and family. In 1955, she played a marriage-minded all-American girl opposite Frank Sinatra in “The Tender Trap.” In 1956, she starred with her new husband, Mr. Fisher, in “Bundle of Joy,” a musical remake of the 1939 comedy “Bachelor Mother.”After the Taylor-Fisher-Reynolds scandal, Ms. Reynolds rode on a crest of good will and was a popular co-star in a long string of films, mostly lighthearted romantic comedies, including “The Gazebo” (1959), “Say One for Me” (1959) and “The Pleasure of His Company” (1961). She also played the title role in “The Singing Nun” (1966), appeared in “Divorce American Style” (1967) and was part of the all-star ensemble cast of “How the West Was Won” (1963), a rare drama among her more than three dozen movie credits.“Drama’s unhappy, and playing someone unhappy would make me unhappy,” she told The Boston Globe in 1990. “Ain’t for me, honey.”She took a stab at series television with a sitcom, “The Debbie Reynolds Show” (1969), in which she played a wacky Lucy Ricardo-like wife who wanted to be a journalist like her husband. It lasted only one season. But she soon achieved a kind of immortality as the voice of Charlotte the selfless spider in the animated film version of E. B. White’s children’s classic “Charlotte’s Web” (1973).She had married Harry Karl, a wealthy shoe retailer, in 1960, but by the time they divorced in 1973, he had gambled away or otherwise misspent his fortune and hers. Ms. Reynolds set out to re-establish herself financially.She headed to New York that year to make her Broadway debut in a revival of the 1920s musical “Irene,” for which she received a Tony Award nomination for best actress in a musical. In 1976, she had a short-lived one-woman Broadway show, “Debbie.” She made her last Broadway appearance in 1983, taking over the role originated by Lauren Bacall in the musical version of “Woman of the Year.” She later toured the country with stage shows including “Annie Get Your Gun” and a new version of “The Unsinkable Molly Brown.”She had taken her musical and comedy talents to Las Vegas as early as 1960 and became a fixture there in the ’70s and ’80s. She and her third husband, Richard Hamlett, a Virginia real estate developer, established their own hotel, casino and movie-memorabilia museum there. But there were financial problems, and the property had to be sold in the ’90s.A decade or so later, it looked as if Ms. Reynolds would finally find a permanent home for her Holly...

Obituary: The Rev. Stephen Goold, 68, led New Hope megachurch - Minneapolis Star Tribune

Allen said. “Everything he touched, worked,” Allen said.After seminary training in California, Goold became pastor of a church in Burbank in 1978, then took over the New Hope church in 1990.During his 24 years at the helm, before retiring in 2014, Goold was a leading figure in the state’s ministry in many domains, from a prominent role in the Billy Graham crusade at the Metrodome in 1996 to a place alongside then Roman Catholic archbishop Harry Flynn at an anti-abortion prayer service in 2002.While that role is remembered today with memorials directed in part to the Family Research Council, a conservative lobbying group, his memorial service recalled his roles as pastor and family man.“The voice others heard, boldly proclaimed the truth,” said daughter Lori Shedd. “The voice I knew told me day after day, month after month, year after year, ‘Your Dad loves you so very much.’ He told me I was beautiful. He cheered me on. He pointed me toward Jesus.”Son Steve, known at home as “Steve 2,” recalled his father’s embarrassing cheers — “Way to go, Steve boy!” — interrupting the silence after his concert performances, before the crowd’s applause.“Nobody else’s Dad did that,” he said. “He never stopped cheering for me.”Goold is survived by his wife of 46 years, Pam; daughter Lori; son Steve; several grandchildren, and siblings Jo Harris, Linda Hulett, Bill Goold and Alice Sorrell. Services have been held.
