R.I.P. Liz Sheridan 1929-2022

Post by melmacian56 »

I just read unfortunate news. We have lost another member of the ALF family. Liz Sheridan has passed away at the age of 93. She will live on in our hearts as Raquel Ochmonek. It was just last weekend I was watching the ALF marathon and was reminded of her golden moments on the show. She had a great career that spanned many decades.

Thank you for the memories, Liz. Rest easy.

Incredibly sad. 93-years-old is a terrific life, but somehow it always seems like it's too soon. I'm very thankful for the laughs she has given me over the years, and also thankful for some of our email conversations a few years ago. She was very respectful to her fans.

I believe some members of this forum managed to get autographed 8x10's from her, correct?

Was very saddened to hear of her passing. She was so nice to me when I reached out via email when I was building my site way back in 2006, and agreed to an interview (the first of many I've conducted with people in the business since!) She was great in ALF, always loved her character.

May she R.I.P.

"Operator, give me the number for 911"

For SO long, I`ve always thought of this line, as coming from an early episode of the Simpsons, so I was surprised to hear it used here, and
before the Simpsons was aired, also makes me wonder if there was an even earlier use of this line, in another show ?!

Also surprised at how little Raquel appeared in S1, and I`m up to the Christmas Special in S2, and still she`s barely in it.

But the scenes she was in were fantastic, and I would have loved to have seen more.

And the interview linked above was a great read as well, what an amazing lady she is !
