Will you join me to bid farewell to a lovely, funny lady ... Anne Meara?

Asked by Pachy (18610points) May 24th, 2015

Anne Meara and her partner-husband Jerry Stiller were pioneers of sophisticated adult comedy. As a kid, I listened to their records over and over, thanks to the influence of my folks. R.I.P., dear Anne.

I don’t go that far back to remember her as a kid, but she was a funny lady.
RIP Lady

I always thought she had all the talent in their family.

I didn’t mind her at all, she will be missed.

As a comedy couple, she was always the pleasure, Jerry the pain. He was ‘What if?’, and she was ‘So what!’ I didn’t ‘get’ that as a kid, and when I saw them appear together I’d think, “What does she see in that crabby man?” The funny thing is, Ben Stiller is the perfect, ideal product of that union. A case where both mother and father can look at a successful son and see the best of each other and themselves.

I hope Jerry, Ben and daughter Amy are at peace with Ann Meara’s passing.
Wonderful woman, hilarious career.

Let’s hope passage was easy.

Never heard of her.
Notwithstanding that, Farewell.

Fly high, and farewell, Ms. Meara. Can’t wait to hear the new material you’ve come up with while waiting for the rest of us to arrive….
