Barbara Bel Geddes - famous for her role as "Miss Ellie" on the long running Dallas series. From an AP article:

"Barbara Bel Geddes, the winsome actress who rose to stage and movie stardom but reached her greatest fame as Miss Ellie Ewing in the long-running TV series "Dallas," has died. She was 82.

The San Francisco Chronicle said she died Monday of lung cancer at her home in Northeast Harbor, Maine. Jordan-Fernald Funeral Home in Mount Desert, Maine, confirmed the death Wednesday, but owner Bill Fernald said the family asked that no further information be given out."

Jock Ewing (forgot real name) died of LC while on the show and Cliff Barnes (ken Kerchavil) has survived it for 10+ years but refuses to discuss. I saw him on an interview last year and he got pissed off at the interviewer for bringing it up and shifted the conversation to his antique business.
