She was 75. Happy memories coming home from school in the eighties after syndication and watching Happy Days then Laverne and Shirley.

Appreciation: Penny Marshall broke ground as a director, but on TV she was loved as 'Laverne'Yes, she was the first woman to direct a film ('Big') that grossed more than $100 million in the U.S., but Penny Marshall was beloved as a TV comedian first. Her most famous series 'Laverne & Shirley,' which debuted as TV's No. 1 show, was a blue-collar TV pioneer that is still a joy to watch. Are they hiding an Adam's apple? Rest In Peace Penny Marshall. Thanks for the memories of fun and laughter.
