I was writing for a series called Barnaby Jones, at Goldwyn Studios in Hollywood. She was an executive assistant on the show. We met and I later asked if she'd like to have dinner with me? She said yes. Afterward, we began dating, fell in love and about a year later, we got married. We had a wonderful marriage of nearly 44 years until she died of complications of Alzheimer's Dementia.
