Broadway Stars We Miss

Are there Broadway stars no longer with us who you particularly miss? Perhaps you might include a video.

I did not have the good fortune to see this star in performance, but miss her nonetheless. Even singing a simple old song, she held our attention.

Laura Osnes

Julie Andrews

Jerry Orbach

When I created this thread, I should not have restricted it to stars who are no longer with us. Instead, I expand it to Broadway stars and others, whether on stage or behind the scenes, who are no longer active for whatever reason. Sorry.
