GREER GARSON, 92, actress:
"I remember her as gracious and beautiful.
She had stature, but it didn't make her
inaccessible. She wasn't somebody you'd
poke and tell a dirty joke to, but she gave
off a real feeling of warmth."--actress Eve
Plumb, who costarred with Garson in the
1978 TV adaptation of Little Women

She also figured in one of the most famous ad lines in movie history: "Gable's back and Garson's got him," for the 1946 romance "Adventure." Her estate could total $50 million, the New York Post reported.
