It’s Miss Beadle!<br />

By: Beverly Washburn / Hollywood Memories<br />

Last month I had the pleasure of being at<br />

the Cherry Blossom Festival in Marshfield<br />

Missouri.<br />

This one was their 18 th annual event<br />

and it celebrates and showcases Missouri<br />

heritage, along with guest speakers,<br />

political dignitaries, food, crafts, vendors,<br />

performances and more.<br />

They also have celebrities there to meet<br />

and greet the attendees and sign autographs.<br />

I was honored to have been asked to be a part<br />

of it.<br />

Some of the other celebrities were Jerry<br />

Mathers (the Beaver) on Leave it to Beaver.<br />

Jon Provost from Lassie, Allison Arngrim from Little House on<br />

the Prairie, Cynthia Pepper from Kissin’ Cousins, Sharon Baird<br />

(an original Mouseketeer!), Mimi Gibson from Houseboat, Karolyn<br />

Grimes from It’s a Wonderful Life, Michael Learned from The<br />

Waltons and Johnny Whittaker from Family Affair among others.<br />

While I was there I ran into Charlotte Stewart who will be<br />

remembered for her role as the teacher Miss Beadle in the series “Little<br />

House on the Prairie.” Charlotte and I go way back.<br />

I have to say without any doubt, she is one of the sweetest, loveliest<br />

ladies I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing.<br />

Miss Beadle might have been her most remembered role, however<br />

she has had quite a career.<br />

She was also on such shows as Bonanza, The Office , Gunsmoke,<br />

The Waltons, and Mannix to name just a<br />

few. Charlotte also had a recurring role as<br />

Betty Briggs in the TV show Twin Peaks.<br />

Charlotte was married for a short time to<br />

Tim Considine whom you will remember<br />

as the oldest son on My Three Sons and also<br />

played “Spin” in the Walt Disney tv series<br />

“Spin and Marty.” Sadly, he passed away last<br />

year.<br />

She has also written her autobiography<br />

“Little House in the Hollywood Hills.”<br />

It was wonderful seeing her again after all these years. How blessed<br />

I am to know her.<br />

Until next time remember, The safest place to be is in someone›s<br />

prayers.<br />
