Avonlea used to be one of my staple shows. Monday nights on the Disney channel.

Oh no! That is one of my favorite shows, and she was one of the best parts.
She also had a small role in my favorite movie, Anne of Green Gables.

Such sad news.

Loved her as Mother Mucca. She was fearless in her portrayal of the crazy in TotC.

My sister and I love Avonlea. We put our money together to buy the boxed sets of DVDs Costco was selling. RIP Aunt Heddy.
