Yowzah. 66 years old???!!! I remember when Hee Haw was one of my daddy's
favourite shows, and the Hagers were so very young (looking).

No, she went years ago.

Clark is, and George Goober Lindsey, and the other Hager twin, but
when Hee Haw went off the air in the early 90's, all of the large cast
of the show pretty much disappeared from TV, and I would imagine a lot
of them are either retired or working in Branson now.

Lulu Roman Smith, Ronnie Stoneman for starters.
Roy Clark just turned 75 BTW

Wow. It's hard to believe that Donald Harron, married to Catherine
McKinnon - who used to be known affectionately by some as "Canada's
sweetheart" - is 83. Funny guy.

They had a pretty good bunch of them on a TVLand awards show last year, where
they gave the show some kind of lifetime achievement award...both of the Hager
boys were present, and I remember at the time being surprised at that...even had
a short skit with many of the Hee-Haw Honeys....r

She did? Everything I'm seeing, says she's still around.
I always confused her with Deborah Walley, who died a
few years ago.

According to sources, she went (back) to Los Angeles with her musician hubby
Gary Verna. Maybe living so close to Jim Beaver just *seems* like heaven
... ;)

That's what you get for having a conversation with a slightly snarky
moron -- me. I was thinking Karen Carpenter.
Cue Ms. Latella.
