Dawn Wells, who played Mary Ann Summers on Gilligan's Island, died yesterday from complications due to COVID-19.
Some of you may not remember Gilligan's Island but the theme song will stick in your head forever if you watch an episode!
Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
A tale of a fateful trip
That started from this tropic port
Aboard this tiny ship.
The mate was a mighty sailing man,
The skipper brave and sure.
Five passengers set sail that day
For a three hour tour, a three hour tour.
The weather started getting rough,
The tiny ship was tossed,
If not for the courage of the fearless crew
The Minnow would be lost, the Minnow would be lost.
The ship set ground on the shore of this uncharted desert isle
With Gilligan
The Skipper too,
A millionaire and his wife,
A movie star
The Professor and Mary Ann,*
Here on Gilligan's Isle.

That TV show is definitely a remembered part of my childhood!
