Mary Tyler Moore

Mary Tyler Moore

Born: December 29, 1936

Died: January 25th, 2017

Happy Hotpoint or just Mary

Mary Tyler Moore embodied

Wholesome sexuality

Not another pretty face

She was a template

Of the woman of the 70’s

Professional and adventurous

Liberated and independent

Everywoman wanted to be Mary

Everyman wanted her as a wife

Mary Richards, lighting the world

With your infectious smile

You’ll be forever missed

Tonight we give Mary

A finale goodnight kiss

“Sweet dreams sweetheart”

“Have a peaceful rest”

Mary appeared first appeared as 'Happy Hot Point' in commercials during the 1950's.  A YouTube link to one of her first appearances is provided.

Thanks for the note Tony.

She will be sorely missed here in the Twin Cities, where her show took place.
