Really, for some reason, I thought she had already died a couple of years ago.

As a kid without cable I learned to appreciate "Bikini Beach".

A few years ago it came out that she had Alzheimer's. She basically went "into seculsion" after that.

I had heard she was in a coma for quite some time.

I knew she had MS but I hadn't heard about the Alzheimer's.

That's too bad

She had MS

at least the Alzheimer's made her forget about the MS.






Here, let me just go ahead and do it for you all.

Wasn't she also a huge homophobe?

Wasn't she also a huge homophobe?

So like if a homo got near her she would fear for her life and run screaming?

She was "the girl next door" with a wholesome image and always a class act.

She remembered in 1987: "Mr. Disney said to me one day, 'Annette, I have a favor to ask of you. I know all the girls are wearing bikinis, but you have an image to uphold. I would appreciate it if you would wear a one-piece suit.' I did, and I never regretted it."
