I loved Doris Roberts in the role of Marie, the M-I-L, in Everybody Loves Raymond. Doris, as Marie, would always make me laugh. Don’t tell anybody but she reminded me of my M-I-L. And her daughter in law on the show was named Deborah! I am sad to hear she is gone.
It’s hard to press ‘Like’ but I remember her from so many shows. She definitely made an impression.

I know what you mean. Facebook has a sad button and more now. I always feel funny pressing ‘Like’ when something is sad. That character Marie was a character.

I did not realize she reached 90 either. It did look like she was vital up to the end. 🙂

She was a great entertainer. She loved her job and had fun doing it. That’s probably why she chose to continue working right up to her death. Nice that she died in her sleep and did not have to suffer a long illness.

She made a great impression on me. I always liked her. I noticed in the report about her dying in her sleep. That was good. 🙂

We loved her! So much of what happened on ELR reminded me of my Mom and older brother. Very similar relationship! 🙂 He announced he was moving to Arizona, and within days she had decided to go too. A woman that had lived in the same place almost her entire life. All our jaws dropped, especially my brothers, but it was the look on his wife’s face that we’ll never forget! 🙂
Such a funny lady, Doris!
