MARCIA STRASSMAN, 66 Died October 24, 2014.
Played the lead role of Gabe's long-suffering wife on "Welcome Back Kotter." Also was in the movie "Honey I Shrank the Kids" and its sequel. She had a recurring role in "M,A,S.H.".
The poor lady had to listen to Kotter's stories about his family and the Sweathogs were liable to come a-visiting at any time.
A few years ago I was surprised to find out she was also a singer and in 1967 had a top 40 hit in several western radio markets with "Flower Children" which stalled at #105 on Billboard.
"Julie Kotter" also appeared on episodes of the Rockford Files, Love Boat and Magnum P.I..
Being a teacher at the time, I sure liked this show.
