RIP Barbara Billingsley
TV's first mother has died @ the age of 94. She did all incarnations of Leave It To Beaver; the classic black & white show to its cable color spinoffs (Still The Beaver; 1983-Disney Channel & The New Leave It To Beaver; 1985-89; TBS) and the 1997 movie.
To cartoon fans, she was the Nanny on CBS' Muppet Babies. You might know her grandson, Peter. He got his start as Messy Marvin on those Hershey syrup commercials, co-hosted Real People and did a couple of movies; The Dirt Bike Kid & a cult classic, A Christmas Story.

I didn't know she was Nanny either. She'll be truly missed. I never watched Leave It To Beaver, but I did watch Muppet Babies. My condolences go out to her family and friends.
