R.I.P, Doris Day. 💔

The legendary actress died at her Carmel Valley, California, home surrounded by close friends. Day “had been in excellent physical health for her age, until recently contracting a serious case of pneumonia,” the foundation said in a statement to The Associated Press. 

Day’s career placed her among America’s sweethearts throughout the ’40s, ’50s and ’60s. Though she withdrew from public life in her later years, Day continued to be an indelible part of pop-culture history.

The daughter of a music teacher and homemaker, Doris Mary Ann Kappelhoff was born April 3, 1922, in Cincinnati. She changed her name to Day when she began singing on the radio as a teen. Day had a son, Terry, with musician Al Jorden in 1942. Terry, who died in 2004, was later adopted by Day’s third husband, Martin Melcher. (Melcher died in April of 1968.)

“All I ever wanted in my life was to get married, have kids, keep house and cook,” Day told Closer magazine in 2014, “and even though I did all these things, I still ended up in Hollywood.”

An infuriated Houston police chief blew up Friday on Twitter after an 11-year-old girl was ordered to be deported without her family.
