    I am 53 years old and watched this lady while growing up. June 12 2007 I was blessed to meet Moolah in an airport and talked to her. She was the most wonderful person I have ever met. I think that she would want us to not feel sad for her passing but be thankful for the remarkable entertainment she gave us and will forever be not be forgotten

    I am not personally familiar with this lady, but I heard about her passing on The View. It sounded as though she was a remarkable woman.
