I'm very sad about Ms. Carter's (or is it Ms. Holbrook?) passing. With the exception of the time she spent on Different Stroke, I always thought that Dixie Carter stood for something better than your run of the mill actress. That said, I should also add that she should have done in better in film than she did. But its hard for a actress who carry a "flinty" role to be the lead, and she was too good to expect her to be anyone's second banana.
Carter and her husband had extra ties to Central Ohio - by way of his alumnus status at Kenyon College.
Very sad...loved her.
