I Love Lucy actress Doris Singleton Dies at 92yearsold

"I Love Lucy" actress Doris Singleton has passed away at the age of 92. She died in Los Angeles on Tuesday, according to the trade publication Variety. Perhaps best known for her role as neighbor Carolyn Appleby on Lucille Ball's hit sitcom, Singleton got her start in show business as a dancer with the American Ballet Theater, and later transitioned into radio, working with the legendary Bob Hope. Her list of acting credits include guest spots on TV shows "All in the Family," "The Munsters," "The Dick Van Dyke Show," "The Twilight Zone," "Days of Our Lives" and "Dynasty." Singleton passed away on the same day as director-screenwriter Nora Ephron, and Lucille Ball's daughter, Lucie Arnaz, has spoken of her sadness after losing two female visionaries in one day. In a post on her Facebook page, Arnaz writes, "A day of saying hasta luego to two great ladies, Nora Ephron and Doris Singleton. May they both fly swiftly heavenward and enjoy a blissful rest for jobs well done down here. They were loved and appreciated and will be missed."
