Annette Funicello...I'll miss you

When I was a kid, we got the Disney Channel when it was brand new. It didn't have any "new" programming yet, so it showed the old stuff. I remember running home from school to watch the B&W Mickey Mouse Club.

Of course Annette was my favorite.

And the classic Disney movies were the BEST. She was so darling in Babes in Toyland and The Shaggy Dog. And don't get me started on Beach Blanket Bingo. (Wasn't Frankie such a babe?)

 

Let's rock out once more with Annette and Tommy:

And lets not forget...



We'll miss you, sweet Annette. Say hi to Jimmy from me!
