Headline News - on the Death of Lucille Ball, 1989

[@hunterchase111]

It really was just like losing a member of the family. Lucy had been a daily part of our lives for about the first 30 years I’ve been on this earth. What an outstanding talent Lucy was! I shall never forget her. Lucy, you are still greatly loved by many!

[@GeorgeVreelandHill]

Thousands? How about millions of fans. We all love Lucy and she will be in our hearts (and on TV) forever.

[@guyinsf]

I caught that too! Millions around the globe is more accurate.

[@debbiedillon6567]

She is the only one that can make me laugh hysterically just watching a rerun of one of her classic sketches. Every time I see the chocolate factory scene I am in hysterics. She was a comedic genius!

[@rubedogg6969]

Lucille Ball will always be the worlds greatest female comedian!

[@note2owns]

I remember being 10 years old and my aunt taking it hard when she passed. I found it odd then but now, 27 years later I understand it.

[@jorgepenaloza5570]

I did to funny I felt like I have known here took it hard carted like she was a part of me she always makes me laugh still does

[@vickersfanxoxoxo]

Watching her show right now. I've seen every episode a million times and she still cracks me up.

[@LJ-ht4zs]

Same here - I Love Lucy saved me thru the lock down of covid-19. Her love and laughter was with me all the way, thank you Lucille Ball - not only have seen your best movies at least 20 of them, also The Lucy Show and Here's Lucy too. (before I had never seen the last two shows)

[@Ascending_Stargazer]

Bob Hope was correct. Episodes would be playing long after their deaths. They were both great talents.

[@Chrisoula17]

I was devastated when I learned she had died. I cried for days.

[@ThePoobears]

me too Chris she sure was an icon.

[@kimjustice991]

We will All ways love you Lucy. As we continue to watch the reruns. I've see them all. We miss you.

[@TheVerbalVolley]

She was like a part of the family, appearing in our living rooms every week, and when in syndication, on a daily basis. We all took it harder than any other celebreties death. She was unique and one of a kind, and I cried for a few days each time I thought about losing her. I miss her to this day. A truly classy lady...

[@imperiallebaron4476]

The episode where Lucy and Ethel work in a candy factory was hysterical, but it was also the truth. My mother worked in a candy factory and told me that was exactly what it was like.

[@elizabethroberto7862]

[@jaytobia7933]

she was one of a kind RIP sweet Lucy

[@oliviaandrade1483]

Who would not have been devastated (or at least sad) by Lucy's death? I was only 9 when she died. But, I know the scope of her comedic talent and that she influenced so many people. Who didn't love her? She will always be (in my book) the ultimate funny lady.

[@thomaskessinger2114]

+OLIVIA ANDRADE I think that it's totally impossible NOT to love Lucy. She can make anybody laugh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) She definitely had charisma and talent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love Lucy a lot.

[@debramaldonado4595]

OLIVIA ANDRADE i loved you lucy

[@SOCORROSILVA-in7px]

Thank you very much for uploading this extremely funny video of Lucille Ball while we are still confined to staying at home during this quarentine as much as possible. Please have a nice weekend. ©® January 30, 2022 @ 1:00 pm ©®

[@elizc2]

I still watch Lucy everyday and it never gets old. My fav is defiinitely Vitameatavegamin.....that was hysterical and the best in my opinion......Miss her nad love her......no one will EVER come close to her gift...

[@LJ-ht4zs]

During the blahs of the pandemic I have watched a show, a part of skit or a movie - Lucille Ball did it all. She lifts my spirits. I Love Lucy

[@harryexx2]

Hi Lucy....When I think of you I think of all the women of the 60's, like my Mother. You were and still are the best of the best.

[@mzmodest]

I remember being 6 yrs old sitting in a drs office watching the news and seeing and hearing of her death i was sad and disappointed she died i wanted to so meet her.

[@daniellashved5515]

May she Rest In Peace. R.I.P Lucille Ball. She was amazing in Mame, I Love Lucy, The Lucy Show, and Here's Lucy. She was an inspiring woman.

[@SOCORROSILVA-in7px]

I remember seeing every single episode of "I Love Lucy" when I was much younger and boy did I enjoy watching it very much. Please think positive daily. ©® January 30, 2022@ 12:55 pm ©®

[@dr.spectre9697]

Lucy was an icon to women and in many ways remains one! She was successful, beautiful, intelligent, and took no garbage from anyone! She proved you could be feminine yet tough, beautiful yet not arrogant and strong but not a bully! I consider her accomplishments not just in acting but also in business, amazing!

[@marydahm6851]

While I feel sadness about her passing at the age of 77, I think of Michael, a 27 year old boyfriend of mine who ended up donating his aorta to her with his sudden motorcycle death. He was traveling on the 101, not wearing a helmet and splat he went on the pavement a few miles from my apartment. At least Lucy was able to use his aorta for about a week or so. Please sign up to be an organ donor.

[@cutie4u61288]

I’m so sorry for your loss. We will all be in heaven again together in eternity. God bless you

[@LJ-ht4zs]

I am sorry to hear about your 27 year old boyfriend's death. Yes, it reminds me to sign up to be an organ donor.

[@LJ-ht4zs]

Actually I did sign up officially to be an organ donor 2/23

[@karendeaton6483]

Currently reading "Love, Lucy" autobiography to a few senior citizen residents and we are laughing and crying throughout the wonderfully written book!

[@nuts45150]

this is how my moms mother was a silly grandmother to me always a great visit , comedian and a great woman

[@askeptic887]

She and Jackie Gleason will always be the greatest!

[@imperiallebaron4476]

I cried when I found out she passed. I was 31 then.

[@antdell8730]

I remember when I heard that she had died, I was in disbelief. She was a tremendous talent.

[@brendendarlin5892]

i will always miss her as well as Desi!!!!

[@maryhlad5277]

I remember when Lucille Ball died. I was heartbroken.

[@aliciaveal1284]

And to think Tim Conway would live another 30 years (popped in my head when they quoted his reaction to her death).

[@sunshineintexas1320]

[@daleandrews367]

My sister was and is a Lucy FREAK; more politely, a Lucy "afficianado". I think she had on tape or CD, book(or any written material) almost everything that was ever published or filmed about her. I think that covers it all!

[@sassycathy9700]

[@EZR09]

I was little when she died!

[@rayarena879]

How sad. Both Lucy and Desi had short lives. She died at 77 and he died at 69. I think that Lucy's mother outlived her.

[@bobbycraig6168]

And Now It’s Said That Lucille Ball’s Ghost Now Haunts her former home in Beverly Hills Where she was living in when she died back on April 26th 1989 ! 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

Stay away from cigarettes!!!!!!!

[@ClassicTVMan1981X]

Do some people find her husband's attempt at pronouncing "Westinghouse" hilarious or... _[censored]_?

[@patrickmarquis955]

I always loved Lucy, but she wasn't very kind to Patty Duke. I remember a lot of negative things she said about her and thought she might have pushed her over the edge. Also saw Lucy on some talk show (Merv Griffin, Mike Douglas or Dinah Shore) when she voiced some dour criticisms of the show "Three's Company" and they later made her host a retrospective of Three's Co. on a network broadcast to make up for it. She sure looked unhappy being there.

[@kathyoverton6270]

😭🤟💔

[@BTURNER1961]

At the kind of physical comedy she was so adroit doing, she was completely without peer. Yes there was Chaplin, Harold Lloyd, Buster Keaton in early silent film and Bea Lillie in film and stage, but Lillie was the only woman producers might eventually risk any real money on. they sure were not willing before Lucy's first series. Lucy was a wrecking ball on the walls and ceilings of sexist stereotypes in comedy. Every woman getting a paycheck on television owes Lucy a third of it.

[@sharingthegoodnews5500]

Whoever is reading this Jesus loves you. Whether you believe it or not he is the true living God. Go to him before he returns and before you die. He died for each and every one of you on the cross for everyone’s sins and was buried and rose from the dead 3 days later so we can have the free gift of salvation which is eternal life in Heaven. He is the only way to Heaven. We are saved by his grace through faith. Go to him he loves you and I love you🙏🏽❤️✝️ I don’t want you to die in your sins and perish in Hell.
