Elly's gone to be with her critters now.

Down to one surviving Clampett (Jethro) and one surviving Bodine (Jethrene). Long live Max Baer Jr.!
 
I was thinking about you the other night, Elly May, when we found a possum in our garage on Christmas Eve.

Rest in Peace. :rose:
 
Yes, no way she will be forgotten from Beverly Hillbillies. I also remember her from the Twilight Zone episode The Eye of the Beholder. R.I.P. Donna
 
She lived near me and I saw her peroidically out and about . Always friendly. A lovely person .
 
Sad!
I enjoyed watching the Beverly Hillbillies as a kid, and I thought Elly May was so sweet, as she loved her critters so much.
RIP beautiful lady, Donna Douglas!
Thank you for being a part of my childhood! :)
