Cindy Williams was fantastic in Laverne & Shirley, Happy Days, and the iconic American Graffiti. Released in 1973, it portrayed California teenage life at the cusp of social change in 1962. Not that many years prior, but worlds apart. Time in a bottle. The soundtrack is fabulous too.

While working at Western Costume in Hollywood in 1976 (Industry types of that era know of Western Costume) I had the fortune of giving both Cindy and Penny Marshall a tour of our Props Dept to help them find something. I dont remember what specifically they were looking to find but I do remember that both of them were a pure delight to be around. One of my fondest memories of that era of my brief career in the Wardrobe field of movies/television. R.IP. Cindy. I've cherished meeting you for 47 years now.

@godfreyzilla8608 Год назад

A few years ago I was looking for a couple of associates who were missing from our large office for a meeting. I peeked into the office of a Department Director and asked "Have you seen Lenny and Squiggy?" She smiled, got up from her desk, grabbed my arm and started the chant as we went into the corridor - "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Schlemiel! Schlimazel! Hasenpfeffer Incorporated. We're gonna do it!" The very young people around us were confused. We were not. "Lenny and Squiggy" showed up a few minutes later never the wiser. I adored Cindy!!

A mutual friend introduced me to Cindy more than 30 years ago. I had been to her house in Malibu for several parties and she was always so sweet and fun. I recall at one party I had noticed a beautiful pen-and-ink drawing on her wall. The signature on it was Picasso. It was titled "The Bullfight" and it was nothing more than several curve lines. Cindy came up to me and I said, "I don't like Picasso but this is beautiful." She said, "I don't like him either" and she told me about when she got it on trip to Spain. Another time I got into a conversation with her at a mutual friends house by saying, "We can't go on meeting like this. People will get suspicious." She began with, "I know we have to keep it quiet." She was always fun to talk with. The world is a less fun place without her. RIP Cindy.
