At the ripe old age of 100, veteran actress June Lockhart passed away from natural causes.  The daughter of actors Gene and Kathleen Lockhart, June was one of the last of the stars from Hollywood's golden age.  She was actually in 1939's A Christmas Carol, which featured her parents.  I bought the DVD of this film a couple of years ago and was amazed that anybody making films in 1939 and who wasn't an infant was still alive.  She looked exactly the same as a child as she did as an older woman. 

June, though, was much better known for her television work than her film output.  She starred in the long-running television series, Lassie, through much of its run until the producers decided the male collie could carry a series all by himself to the point of having puppies, thus making veterinary history.  June played  Ruth Martin, who raised the orphan Tim, who was played by Jon Provost, the latter I met some 17 or 18 years ago at the Hot August Nights celebration in Reno.  Both Lockhart and Provost looked alike, which was funny, as Provost reminded me they didn't play related characters.  
June then went on to play the matriarch of the space television series Lost in Space, a 1960s cult television program and the show for which she is most likely remembered.
June Lockhart died on Thursday, October 23.
