R.I.P. Patty Duke

Patty Duke passed away yesterday at the age of 69. In addition to being a very talented actress, she was a mental health advocate who was very outspoken about her own battle with bi-polar disease.

I had the pleasure of meeting Patty at the Chiller convention a few years ago and was in awe of her kindness. She took her time with every fan who came her way and made you feel like you were part of her family. She was a special soul and our hearts go out to her family and friends at this difficult time.
