    Bernie M. remembers her with fondness uncommon to this thread:

    Yeah, AP called her a "hometown hero."

    She ain't remembered <a href="http://www.sbsun.com/sports/ci_8015821">quite the same way</a> out here. ;)

    Forty-five minutes late to her fifth husband's funeral.

    She told mourners it was because she'd been in the house, talking to Carroll.

    She was a lot of things, including remarkable.

    I never said L.A. fans WEREN'T unwavering in their support of the Dodgers. They have been for 50 years. I'm saying that the Rams, Dodgers and Lakers were equally popular. In the fall, they supported big time the Rams (and USC football). In the winter, the Lakers (and UCLA basketball). In the spring-summer, the Dodgers. It gets a bad rap as a bad sports town, but I always found it to be a very good sports town.

    And good link, Buck. I read it this morning and O knows a lot about SoCal, including Madame Ram.

    It's too bad Jim Healy isn't where Georgia is now, otherwise, he'd introduce her this way:

    geez milehigh, i simply was saying fan support of the dodgers didn't shift no matter what time of the year it was.

    Few things:
    -- Paul O did a really good job with his column in the Sun.
    -- Bernie M. wrote a "Yea for St. Louis" column that didn't even touch on what she did to pummel the franchise in L.A. and trigger the move to St.L
    -- Georgia was an hour late for Carroll's funeral because, as the rumors go, she was upstairs in the sack with Jack Youngblood.

    Miklasz fawned over Georgia because she gave him her time, unlike a lot of other writers.
