During an interview in 1961, she said that she got a lot of roles in western shows because she was from Texas. “I've been on so many horses I'm beginning to feel like they're a part of me. The funny thing is I'm not much of a rider," added the actress,

She is survived by daughters Cathleen and Cynthia, sons Jeff and Chip (both producers) and six grandchildren.
