A Sassie
is a member of the Yahoo Group called the Sassies (SAS =Stockwell
Appreciation Society). Many of the Sassies have been
incredibly helpful in donating information about the wonderful
actor named Dean Stockwell, and I would like to try and
thank them personally: Claire, Marie, Marilyn (Cookie),
Joy, Carol, Vern, ML, and Andra.
And an even bigger thank you, with fireworks, to my co-moderator
and very dear Internet friend, Ruthie, who put this entire
website together for everyone to enjoy; and to my other
co-moderator, Andrea, who has used her considerable talents
to keep this website updated
I also need to thank former members of the Sassies, who
may have only stayed on our group for a brief period of
time, but who nevertheless left input about the actor which
I'm sure has become part of the Sassies 'collective consciousness.'
I would like to close this Thank You letter by mentioning
a woman named Geordie James. Her and I have never
met, and she doesn't even know I exist. But once upon
a time she was going to start a Fan Club for Dean Stockwell
back in 1974, with his permission. One of our current
Sassie members, Claire, corresponded with Ms. James back
then, and amazingly kept her letters. Claire shared
this correspondence with me, as well as many delightful
photos and playbills from that time in Dean's life.
Without Claire's input (and Ms. James) this site would not
be nearly as blessed.
