Remembering Van Johnson

After posting my remembrance piece on Bettie Page, my Grandma Phyllis made it known to me that the actor Van Johnson also passed away of recent.

Now maybe you don't know who Van Johnson is, but I do, and my Grandma certainly does. She used to be sweet on him (translation: she had a mad crush on him back in the day, yo!).

So this post is in honor of Van... and Grandma Phyllis, who always reads my blog.

In the Good Old Summertime with Judy Garland

Oh, sad day about Van! I hadn't heard he had passed. For a long time I was only familiar with him as the gruffy friend of Gene Kelly in Brigadoon, but then I saw In the Good Old Summertime and really liked him in it. Thanks for passing on the news!
