Thanks Alex! I'll be watching the next Academy Memorial Update very closely to see whether to move her to the Members Pages or the Non-Members Pages!
ReplyDeleteUpdate: Based on the information that the Academy published on their Memorial List on 1/6/2017, Florence Henderson has been moved off this Wish List, and onto the NON-Members Pages.
