Dallas Actors I remember Mama - Barbara Bel Geddes at 102

I just wanted to post that Thursday October 31st would have been Barbara Bel Geddes's 102nd Birthday if she were alive today .................

What can I say about her that I haven't said before.

She was special - she touched my life and made a lasting impression on me, I will never forget her. I wish that I had met her - as its quite easy to meet Dallas cast members - but she was always elusive, reclusive and kept a very low profile in the land of Showbiz. I will always regret that I came close in 1983 but not close enough on the Dallas set and was 2 weeks too early as she was ill.

She gave Dallas a heart and a soul, it wasn't the same without her and she has been my favourite actress since I was a schoolgirl! I loved her to bits and thanks to the wonderful casting of the original show, I feel blessed and lucky to have seen her on screen alongside all the other wonderful cast members. Original Dallas was really special

Thankfully she has left a wonderful legacy behind both on TV and film. I would have loved to see her post Dallas on stage in her hometown of New York. Was cool to meet her grandaughter there and BBGs scrapbooks are something I will treasure

I remember Mama!
