"Mrs. C." Replies

Marion Ross

Reference Date: September 8th





One of the nicest surprises I've gotten since my letter writing campaign began was a package personally made out and sent by actress Marion Ross, who played Marion "Mrs. C." Cunningham on the hit 1970's TV show "Happy Days."

Inside the package was a personally autographed photo of Ms. Ross, as well as a copy of her biography, written by O.H. Buzz Hagen, about growing up in Albert Lea, Minnesota called "Going Home", inscribed with a message to me. This is what it said:

Dear Chris,

Keep hungry! The Big "D" - desire, is the strongest motivation.

There is room for every type in the acting business, as many as there are types of people.

Sometimes the greatest success comes when you're much older, so hang in there - it's a lifetime plan!

Keep healthy too!

Good luck!

- Marion Ross


I sent her a thank you card the next day
