One of the most delightful people to ever grace the stage. Debbie Reynolds was a very special person and was blessed to go be with her daughter Carrie only one day after Carrie’s tragic passing. God must have honored Debbie’s prayer.❤️
Jerry Skinner this video pop-up on my RUclips suggestions and I am glad it did. I absolutely loved Debbie Reynold and I read everything about her followed her life as one would a "favorite movie actress life". Her life was hard but it is amazing how she came back stronger after every heartache. I remember so well that I did not like her selection of husbands, but Debbie was in love and as they say "love is blind". She was beautiful, talented, witty, lovely sweet voice and an amazing smile. The ending though very sad; she got to go hand in hand with Carrie towards a beautiful heavenly place. What a lovely tribute, you made my day. Take care ...Elizabeth Cantarell
How could anybody put a thumbs down on his biography of Debbie Reynolds and her daughter Carrie. This was a very heart warming ❤️ program. Thank you so much for sharing.
Another beautiful tribute Jerry. I saw Todd's interview about the book he wrote and it was so sweet how he said it was okay that his mom went to be with Carrie because he knew she needed Debbie more than he did. That Carrie had always had a problem of being lonely and scared in the world but he was secure & able to be alone. His mother understood this. She didn't want Carrie to be afraid or alone so she went on ahead to be with Carrie. He said it was okay he wasn't hurt. I thought what an amazing young man how he could accept that his mother believed in him so much she could leave him, to go permanently from his life till death brought them together again so the weakest child wouldn't be alone. I guess Debbie had figured out what was really wrong with Carrie all those years that caused the alcohol & drug addiction. There's always a reason psychologically behind it, you just have to figure out why. Once you find that out, you're able fight it, to hopefully prevent the problem by taking precautionary steps against having those feelings overwhelm you again. I guess Debbie didn't want Carrie to be overwhelmed again.
Jerry, your voice is absolutely beautiful. Fantastic job. A lot of rich, famous woman marry men who turn out to be monsters. People are very judgmental about it but they don't realize what good actors these psychopaths are! If one sets his sights on you, it is very difficult not to fall for them. Debbie kept her sense of humor and her dignity - wonderful lady.
So many people watch the marvelous performances, wild shenanigans, and shining talents of certain performers -- and Debbie Reynolds is one of the finest. Those same people never realize that all he glamor is a facade, and behind it, those who take part are just people. But EXCEPTIONAL people, who both persevere and suffer to attain the heights they reach. Love ya, Debbie. William Childress
A friend and I once had front-row seats at Debbie's show which was very enjoyable. Such a huge star and a down-to-earth personable person. At the show end , she was holding a bouquet of roses close to the stage front , I had one of her first books and walked up to the stage held it open , pen in hand, and asked if I could have her autograph please. Holding a bouquet of roses, she leaned over and scribbled her name inside the front cover, it being barely legible because of the circumstances but a wonderful keepsake..
'The Unsinkable Molly Brown', what a movie that was!! Nothing comes out of Hollywood like that any more! We love you Debbie, Z Thank you for all you gave!!! Rest in peace, you were a gift!
This is one of the most beautiful tributes I have ever heard or saw on Debbie Reynolds. What a great job.Jerry has done here. I would rather hear Jerry's voice doing something like this than all the rest. Amen Debbie Reynolds - you did the best you could do.
This was a sad story. But you tell it so well. I wish Debbie Reynolds could’ve found happiness with the right man. But luckily, due to her determination and resolve, she managed to pick up the pieces and keep it moving. I have a lot of respect for her. Thanks Jerry, for making this documentary. I really enjoy all of your documentaries.
I appreciate this tender and truthful Bio of Debbie. I grew up watching her in films. I didn't know many of the details that you talked about concerning the last two husbands and its saddens me to know she never really found true love from the men she married. Yet she seemed to have a loving heart in spite of that. Thank you for the touching memory of Debbie Reynolds you have left for us all who watch this.
I wanted to add my voice to others to simply say Thank You. You took a challenging and complicated storyline and shared it with pace and grace. Your stories share the human condition with reverence and perspective which you don't find very often these days. All-the-Best...
What a precious tribute to Debbie and Carrie, how sad but Carrie was waiting for her mom and knew Debbie would be joining her shortly. They are now together forever and Debbie made sure Carrie would not be alone. Thanks Jerry.
This is a wonderful documentary. Thank you for sharing all of this with us. I remember all of the news articles at those times over the years.. A movie star’s life is not easy. Being an actress is hard work. One has to be always working. Debbie Reynold’s truly a survivor. In many, many ways. Debbie, was meant to be with Carrie. When she passed away suddenly. This is Truly a mother/daughter devotion, & love story
I remember Debbie Reynolds in the 1960's and she was a huge star back then! I thought Debbie Reynolds was such a great star! I loved her! I could not believe it when she said that due to her husband Karl she ended up living in her car! Yet she would show up on late night shows beautifully dressed like a movie star! No one knew the trouble she was having! RIP Debbie!
I haven’t even watched the video yet, just wanted to start out saying my mom, who loved Debbie Reynolds, used to let me stay up cuddled on the couch next to her to watch movies on a late movie channel. I saw several movies with Debbie and fell in love with her too. Mom would tell me stories from Debbie’s life. I lost my mom 4 years ago this last July to a rare cancer. There is a 100% chance I will cry while watching this. Well I was right, I cried. This brought back wonderful memories...bitter sweet for me. Very nice Jerry. Thank you.
Hi Jerry, Terrific piece of work here. It shows that fame and wealth really mean nothing but trouble for a great many of these people. I like the simple life and appreciate everyday things. Sea Fishing is my main hobby and fresh air and the scenery are free, yet make me the most happiest. Thanks Jerry for your stellar work here. Steve in Scotland.
Excuse me for not knowing, but I'm a sexagenarian (which is another word for OLD), but when you put my name down.... does that mean you agree with me??
A remarkable story of two very talented and interesting women, and of the strong, unbreakable bond between mother and daughter. Somehow, it seems fitting that Debbie followed Carrie. I do feel great sympathy for Todd’s loss. May both Carrie and Debbie Rest In Peace.
What a poignant and beautifully crafted documentary short. It was a respectful touch to share what happened to the men in Debbie Reynold's life and especially to pay tribute to her remarkably talented daughter, Carrie. Thank you for putting this together and for the work put into it.
Bruce B Chin - I didn’t care for Carrie, her mother Debbie was wonderful but spoiled Carrie feeling guilty not being there for her, but she had to work!
well, Eddie had five wives and it seems the last one was the charm. He never quit looking for that perfect woman. He had a long life and he had a relationship with his kids. I think he did OK. Leaving Debbie for Liz was very tacky and low, but some men cannot control their urges. Elizabeth Taylor was a dream. He said she was the love of his life. Served him right, she dumped him for Burton. Ha ! his life was busy and complicated but he kept on marrying again and again.......He needed support !
Diana Beurman. As you mentioned the word "DESERVED'" here is something for you to think about. Someone thinks we must pay for the privilege of living ... who? How did this ever come about? How could we ever have fallen for this nonsense? Someone on this plane(t?) had the most brilliant, scathing idea in the history of mankind - to appeal to our egotistical belief that we are all guilty and deserve punishment, that we are something other than who we truly are ... and CAPITALIZED upon it. There were also a few tyrants in history who also thought some people Deserved some kind of torture or death ... All the ays from the Church to the Nazis and to George Bush. Are you placing yourself in their category be deciding that someone DESERVES some kind of punishment? Are you placing yourself above the creator of all things who has the ultimate decision? Judgment day will come for ALL of us including you. Best to stay away from the FRONT ROW.
I was lucky enough to have the honer of meeting Debbie on the TCM cruise. Boy what a friendly person she was. such a star yet so kind. She said hello to me and the gal I was with. She would pass away just a few years later. God bless you and thanks for everything.
I love Jerry Skinner videos! They take me back to a time and place that I miss. But thanks to Jerry and his amazing voice and narration I can go back every time I turn on a video. These videos , a drink and a snack between 8-10 are how I end my days before bed. Thanks Jerry..
Very touching. I think most people my age (31) were big Carrie Fisher fans because they loved Star Wars but I never got into it. Who I did love was Debbie Reynolds who I knew through her older movies, her modern movies & of course “Halloweentown”. My favorite Debbie performance is a comedy movie called “Mother” from 1996 co-starting Albert Brooks. It’s HILARIOUS! A newly divorced adult son & writer moves in with his neurotic, cooky mother. He teaches her to enjoy life more. It’s basically mother & son getting to know & respect each other as adults. Its heartwarming & funny. I’m sure Billie Lourd will have a career her mother Carrie & grandmother Debbie would be proud of. I was sad to see either of them go but at least they’re together now. 💚
You are a wonderful story teller. I learned so much, and interesting about Paul Simon and Graceland. That lasting image was priceless and helps to soften the grief in your ending narrative. You have integrity and a sensitivity and shares the facts in an unbiased way. Brilliant.
I will listen later. Adding it to my listen later playlist ! Just wanted to say thank you for doing a bio on her. You are the one guy who is so good at these. I know ahead of time I will enjoy it.
Thank you Jerry for this documentary. I learned a lot of things I did not know. My mom was very fond of Debbie and I really liked her daughter Carrie. It doesn't matter how famous you are you are not immune from misfortune and calamity. Thanks again Jerry.
What a great documentary Mr Skinner. You show so much respect to these people after their passing. Love your voice and the layout of video. Great job. Thank You.
Helen Perez one of the memorable quotes of My mother She lost my oldest brother about 2 days after his birth , and My next oldest brother in 1995. "A parent should never outlive a child!"
I had to leave it a few days before watching this, because I know how moving your shows are. This was way beyond touching, and your shows are so well crafted, that I can imagine this is the most fitting tribute on the planet. I had to sit in silence for a while afterwards, and still a bit in shock. I had a chance to see These Old Broads last year, and I'm glad the Golden Era Golden Girls made up and made friends.
@LemonTubeAmiga, I heard about Debbie, and Elizabeth's friendship, the end, and of the reconciliation. I am so glad they reconciled. I may sound a little wicked, but I was more than a little glad that they had lunch together and had laughs all at Eddie Fisher's expense😈
Thank you very much, Mr. Skinner for that documentary on Ms. DEBBIE REYNOLDS. She was one of my 2 EVER FAVE TV/Movie Actresses (the other being Miss STEFANIE POWERS). Ms. Reynolds was very unlucky in love & friends, just like me. I love her. She was a very VERSATILE movie star..she could act, sing & dance. RIP, Ms.REYNOLDS. YOU WERE ONE OF A KIND!!!
One of the loveliest person I ever seen in the movies. I loved her so much, I begged my Mom to name my baby sister Tammy. She was one of the most determined hard working women I ever saw. She tried so hard to please those idiot husbands of hers and every time they would do her wrong. Thank you Jerry it's always a pleasure to listen to your stories, you do them so well. Have a wonderful Christmas, and new year.
Absolutely, outstanding! I enjoyed this commentary very much. I am a LONG time fan of Debbie's and Jerry you have captured her life and passing in your own wonderful way! Thanks!
Debbie Reynolds was among the 'Best of the Best' and will still be remembered two centuries from now. I distinctly remember the news report of her passing, just after the death of Carrie. It was heartbreaking.
Such a well done, truly moving tribute. Debbie and Carrie both brought as much joy to my life as all other actresses combined. I grew up watching many of Debbie’s reruns, The Unsinkable Molly Brown one of my all time favorites, and later on my children’s... the original VHS I bought for them has made several moves with me and I doubt I’ll ever part with it even though the cassette is obsolete. There was something very special about her. People who have sweet spirits like she did often get blindsided by manipulators because their minds just don’t go there - they can’t imagine people acting so despicably. She really was a remarkable woman. Eddie was right about one thing - Elizabeth Taylor sure didn’t deserve to be treated any better than he was treated. Women who cheat are just as bad, worse if it’s with their best friend’s husband. Men can’t cheat if there aren’t willing women. Carrie’s Postcards from the Edge was brilliant and no one could make me laugh like Carrie when she was filmed just being herself. I often think about Todd and hope he’s doing well. Such a unique and interesting family. Thank you for sharing this very special gift with all of us, Mr. Skinner. I really appreciate it.
Thank you for this...Debbie Reynolds and Doris Day were alot more sassy and tough than their screen images portrayed...to survive the abusive marriages they both went through shows grit.
My mom couldn't stand Debbie,but I loved her.She was only 5'2,but had double that,in talent.She always amazed me with her acting,singing,dancing and extraordinary humor.Yup...she was the dynamite package.Farewell,Debbie...you will be missed and you were definitely loved by the thousands.She's with her baby girl and she's smiling...
I was very Blessed to Have had Mary Frances (Debbie) Reynold's become My "Aunt Debbie" after my Father passed away in 1969. Losing Both Her and Carrie in December was Devastating To Me. I was very touched by Jerry Skinner's very accurate account of My Aunt's life. There are some "typo's" lol but this Tribute was a Wonderful "Trip Down Memory Lane" For me. Some of the Personal pictures used I haven't seen in many many years. I had a very special place in my Heart for Debbie's Dad, My Buddy Ray or Grandpa. He always made me feel very Loved as did Debbie. Not so much Maxine when I was a child, but when I was older we had a nice friendship. I Never knew Eddie because Todd and Carrie did not have a Real Relationship with him until her daughter Billie was born. I was pretty much "out of the picture" at that point. My Aunt Debbie was born on April Fools Day and Unfortunately she was very foolish in her choice in men. However, Deb was "Nobody's Fool". She was one of the MOST LOVING & GIVING People EVER To Grace This EARTH. Her Kindness Towards Other's, as Is Too often the case was Mistaken For Weakness By Weak and Spineless People. Thank You Mr. Jerry Skinner For This TREAT ! I So Appreciate It !
Bruce, thank you so very much for your kind words. I know it is good for many of Debbies fans to know how wonderful she was, especially from someone who knows. Thank you again. Jerry
That was really bad for those men to take advantage of her, but on the other side,her life shows what a kind person she was, I thought Carrie and Paul Simon made a good couple
Thank you so much Bruce for the beautiful words and picture of such a Beautiful person and Actress as it always showed through the camera of every film she did. As a young child in elementary school going to watch, “HowThe West Was Won,” I feel in love with her and now that I am getting older, I am still in love with her. Her great qualities always came through and Carie was so fortunate to have her. Thanks again Mr. Skinner for your well done documentaries on these great actors that have given us everything,even though they had sacrificed their own family experience.
Debbie Reynolds was a mutil talented, beautiful, graceful, loving, forgiving lady. She was sheer class. And yes, she died of a broken heart and worrying that Carrie would be alone.
I've only this day heard their stories in this collected timeline...Amazing and Inspirational how Carrie and Debbie overcame every set back. It is because, they individually and as family, stood back up in the face of the public everytime. God Be with their Family still here living.
I have watched 3 of Jerry's videos of 3 great people. Needless to say I am a wreck now, very close to tears. You think these people have such great lives with the money, clothes, etc., they have their troubles too. This lady Debbie suffered through a lot. I always loved watching and listening to her on talk shows. Incredible sense of humor, always a laugh. A beautiful, kind lady. RIP Debbie and Carrie.
I never knew much about Debbie Reynolds until I saw the movie “Singing in The Rain”. It became one of my all time favorite movies. Many years ago I was in my local Walmart when I heard a song playing over the store intercom, the song was “It’s a Miracle” or something like that. I loved the song and couldn’t get it out of my head. When I got home I telephoned the store to ask what the song was. They told me it was a personal tape of a guy who worked in the shoe department. I talked to the guy in the shoe department and he told me the song was sung by Debbie Reynolds and was from the album The Singing Nun and I bought the album and still love the song and the album. It’s really ironic because before I saw the movie “Singing in The Rain”. I always thought that I didn’t like musicals.
Exceptional, entertaining, and educational film....good narration. Packed so much fascinating information in less than 30 mins! Follow ups on past husbands, and Elizabeth Taylor was unexpected and added to the documentary. Excellent choice of pictures, music was unobtrusive. Covering details about her poor humble beginnings, conservative religious upbringing and how her mother reacted to her daughter’s involvement with the film industry answered some question. Debbie apparently having to sleep in her Cadillac due to her husband spending her money is shocking. Having a past experience with a narcissist makes me wonder if she wasn’t exposed to several....they are indeed charmers. (RUclips has excellent videos on the subject by Dr. Grande and Dr. Ramani). Thank you for one of the most well done documentaries I’ve seen in a long while!
I have been a fan of Debbie's since the mid 50's. She was such a nice person as well as talented. Being so nice, she did not receive any niceness from men in her life.
This was an excellent documentary. It reminds us to be ever mindful of the fact that we misunderstand much more than we realize; things are seldom what they seem. I just loved her!
Thanks Jerry I knew we could count on you to give us a great video biography on Debby, she will be missed. Great job as always, you have a great voice for narration you should be working for TV making documentaries.
@Odette Widdicombe...only if they were both supernaturally (from Jesus) born again of the Spirit (as Jesus tells) and walking with Him daily in obedience. I don't know if they got saved and born again.
My father passed away at the age of 97 on the 24th of December, one day after Carrie was stricken ill. I can never forget. He and my mother were movie buffs and big fans of Debbie.
Wow, I had not a single clue. Once again Jerry, you have amazed me. Thanks for doing the leg work and far greater, the amazing job on producing a quality channel. I have no higher regard.
Debbies life was tragic, too trusting of terrible men, I don’t see where Carries life was tragic, she was a drug addict, her choice, which was another tragedy for Debbie
Such a beautiful lady and talented actress , how sad that her men ruined her life and left her penniless but thankfully she had no problem acting and straightened herself out again ! What a bittersweet life ! Rip Debbie and Carrie ❤️

The ending though very sad; she got to go hand in hand with Carrie towards a beautiful heavenly place. What a lovely tribute, you made my day. Take care ...Elizabeth Cantarell
Unbelievable highs & devastating lows. What an indomitable couple Debbie & Carrie were.
Thanks Mr Skinner for another beautiful tribute.
Hello beautiful good morning
Multi talented Debbie Reynolds was class, sheer class. They don't make them like that anymore. RIP. you've earned it.
How could anybody put a thumbs down on his biography of Debbie Reynolds and her daughter Carrie. This was a very heart warming ❤️ program. Thank you so much for sharing.
Another beautiful tribute Jerry. I saw Todd's interview about the book he wrote and it was so sweet how he said it was okay that his mom went to be with Carrie because he knew she needed Debbie more than he did. That Carrie had always had a problem of being lonely and scared in the world but he was secure & able to be alone. His mother understood this.
She didn't want Carrie to be afraid or alone so she went on ahead to be with Carrie. He said it was okay he wasn't hurt. I thought what an amazing young man how he could accept that his mother believed in him so much she could leave him, to go permanently from his life till death brought them together again so the weakest child wouldn't be alone.

I guess Debbie didn't want Carrie to be overwhelmed again.
Jerry, your voice is absolutely beautiful. Fantastic job. A lot of rich, famous woman marry men who turn out to be monsters. People are very judgmental about it but they don't realize what good actors these psychopaths are! If one sets his sights on you, it is very difficult not to fall for them. Debbie kept her sense of humor and her dignity - wonderful lady.

Beautiful, talented, incredible person.
This was a touching and beautifully done for Debbie and Carrie's fans. Thank you. RIP Debbie and Carrie
A really nice narration of the life of the talented "Debbie Reynolds."
That was the saddist story I have EVER heard! All she wanted was for someone to love her the way she loved them. God bless you little Angel.
Thank you very much Jerry Skinner... for all your fine biographies.

EDDIE DESERVED WHAT HE GOT!! I MET DEBBIE SEVERAL YEARS AGO SHE WAS SO SWEET AND KIND TO MY DAUGHTER AND MYSELF.
well, Eddie had five wives and it seems the last one was the charm. He never quit looking for that perfect woman. He had a long life and he had a relationship with his kids. I think he did OK. Leaving Debbie for Liz was very tacky and low, but some men cannot control their urges. Elizabeth Taylor was a dream. He said she was the love of his life.

As you mentioned the word "DESERVED'" here is something for you to think about.
Someone thinks we must pay for the privilege of living ... who?
How did this ever come about?
How could we ever have fallen for this nonsense?
Someone on this plane(t?) had the most brilliant, scathing idea in the history of mankind - to appeal to our egotistical belief that we are all guilty and deserve punishment, that we are something other than who we truly are ... and CAPITALIZED upon it.
There were also a few tyrants in history who also thought some people Deserved some kind of torture or death ... All the ays from the Church to the Nazis and to George Bush.
Are you placing yourself in their category be deciding that someone DESERVES some kind of punishment?
Are you placing yourself above the creator of all things who has the ultimate decision?
Judgment day will come for ALL of us including you.

What a great documentary Mr Skinner. You show so much respect to these people after their passing. Love your voice and the layout of video. Great job. Thank You.
A very heartbreaking story. I grew up watching Mrs. Reynolds as well as her daughter Carrie. She had such grace and lit up a room with her kind smile.
Oh my heart is breaking, i cant imagine losing one of my daughters! Its unnatural for a parent to lose a child. Rest in Peace Ladies
Helen Perez one of the memorable quotes of My mother She lost my oldest brother about 2 days after his birth , and My next oldest brother in 1995. "A parent should never outlive a child!"
Robert Payne my sister died in 2011
I had to leave it a few days before watching this, because I know how moving your shows are. This was way beyond touching, and your shows are so well crafted, that I can imagine this is the most fitting tribute on the planet. I had to sit in silence for a while afterwards, and still a bit in shock. I had a chance to see These Old Broads last year, and I'm glad the Golden Era Golden Girls made up and made friends.
@LemonTubeAmiga, I heard about Debbie, and Elizabeth's friendship, the end, and of the reconciliation. I am so glad they reconciled. I may sound a little wicked, but I was more than a little glad that they had lunch together and had laughs all at Eddie Fisher's expense😈
Thank you very much, Mr. Skinner for that documentary on Ms. DEBBIE REYNOLDS. She was one of my 2 EVER FAVE TV/Movie Actresses (the other being Miss STEFANIE POWERS). Ms. Reynolds was very unlucky in love & friends, just like me. I love her. She was a very VERSATILE movie star..she could act, sing & dance. RIP, Ms.REYNOLDS. YOU WERE ONE OF A KIND!!!
One of the loveliest person I ever seen in the movies. I loved her so much, I begged my Mom to name my baby sister Tammy. She was one of the most determined hard working women I ever saw. She tried so hard to please those idiot husbands of hers and every time they would do her wrong. Thank you Jerry it's always a pleasure to listen to your stories, you do them so well. Have a wonderful Christmas, and new year.
Jerry, you do all of these with such love and care.....BRAVO, to you....!!! very enjoyable...
As always, you make the best and respectful videos! lots of love from Ireland xxx
👋😊🇱🇷
Absolutely, outstanding! I enjoyed this commentary very much. I am a LONG time fan of Debbie's and Jerry you have captured her life and passing in your own wonderful way! Thanks!
Thank you so much for doing what you do so well.
Thanks Jerry. Your narrations are always great and interesting.
Very touching documentary.
Thank you
What a lovely story, so sad. So much life. I loved Debbie Reynolds.
Debbie Reynolds was among the 'Best of the Best' and will still be remembered two centuries from now.
I distinctly remember the news report of her passing, just after the death of Carrie.
It was heartbreaking.
Such a well done, truly moving tribute. Debbie and Carrie both brought as much joy to my life as all other actresses combined. I grew up watching many of Debbie’s reruns, The Unsinkable Molly Brown one of my all time favorites, and later on my children’s... the original VHS I bought for them has made several moves with me and I doubt I’ll ever part with it even though the cassette is obsolete. There was something very special about her. People who have sweet spirits like she did often get blindsided by manipulators because their minds just don’t go there - they can’t imagine people acting so despicably. She really was a remarkable woman. Eddie was right about one thing - Elizabeth Taylor sure didn’t deserve to be treated any better than he was treated. Women who cheat are just as bad, worse if it’s with their best friend’s husband. Men can’t cheat if there aren’t willing women. Carrie’s Postcards from the Edge was brilliant and no one could make me laugh like Carrie when she was filmed just being herself. I often think about Todd and hope he’s doing well. Such a unique and interesting family. Thank you for sharing this very special gift with all of us, Mr. Skinner. I really appreciate it.
Thank you Jerry Skinner for the in depth information about Debbie Reynolds. I enjoy all your commentaries of the Hollywood stars...
Thanks Jerry, what a wonderful, strong woman. Great job sir.
Thank you Jerry !
A LOT OF love went into this. 🌷
This documentary was very well thought out and orderly, one of the best I've seen. Thank you
That is really true, you can die when you feel that a person that you really love pass away, beautiful documentary thank you.
She Debbie wanted to come home
with her daughter. Her men has all
chated on her both in love and money.😗❤💋Rest in peace.🍃
Hello 👋 good morning
Thank you for this...Debbie Reynolds and Doris Day were alot more sassy and tough than their screen images portrayed...to survive the abusive marriages they both went through shows grit.
I think these two ladies had to be a bit sassy in order to survive what they went through
They both chose to be with those loser guys that they helped support. The river runs deep.
My mom couldn't stand Debbie,but I loved her.She was only 5'2,but had double that,in talent.She always amazed me with her acting,singing,dancing and extraordinary humor.Yup...she was the dynamite package.Farewell,Debbie...you will be missed and you were definitely loved by the thousands.She's with her baby girl and she's smiling...
TheSharron - your mother was probably jealous!! Who didn’t love Ms Reynold???
I was very Blessed to Have had Mary Frances (Debbie) Reynold's become My "Aunt Debbie" after my Father passed away in 1969. Losing Both Her and Carrie in December was Devastating To Me. I was very touched by Jerry Skinner's very accurate account of My Aunt's life. There are some "typo's" lol but this Tribute was a Wonderful "Trip Down Memory Lane" For me. Some of the Personal pictures used I haven't seen in many many years. I had a very special place in my Heart for Debbie's Dad, My Buddy Ray or Grandpa. He always made me feel very Loved as did Debbie. Not so much Maxine when I was a child, but when I was older we had a nice friendship. I Never knew Eddie because Todd and Carrie did not have a Real Relationship with him until her daughter Billie was born. I was pretty much "out of the picture" at that point. My Aunt Debbie was born on April Fools Day and Unfortunately she was very foolish in her choice in men. However, Deb was "Nobody's Fool". She was one of the MOST LOVING & GIVING People EVER To Grace This EARTH. Her Kindness Towards Other's, as Is Too often the case was Mistaken For Weakness By Weak and Spineless People. Thank You Mr. Jerry Skinner For This TREAT ! I So Appreciate It !
Bruce, thank you so very much for your kind words. I know it is good for many of Debbies fans to know how wonderful she was, especially from someone who knows. Thank you again. Jerry
That was really bad for those men to take advantage of her, but on the other side,her life shows what a kind person she was, I thought Carrie and Paul Simon made a good couple
That is so sweet and so nice to hear from someone close how much it meant to you.
I love that you've commented xxx
Thank you so much Bruce for the beautiful words and picture of such a Beautiful person and Actress as it always showed through the camera of every film she did. As a young child in elementary school going to watch, “HowThe West Was Won,” I feel in love with her and now that I am getting older, I am still in love with her.
Her great qualities always came through and Carie was so fortunate to have her.
Thanks again Mr. Skinner for your well done documentaries on these great actors that have given us everything,even though they had sacrificed their own family experience.
Debbie Reynolds was a mutil talented, beautiful, graceful, loving, forgiving lady. She was sheer class. And yes, she died of a broken heart and worrying that Carrie would be alone.
Meir Wise yup
Beautiful job Jerry!!! As always!!
A very sad but also another excellent presentation Mr Skinner . Waiting , as always for the next one ... Regards .
Amazing story Jerry and well done ! Thanks
Thank you Herb, good to see you are still keeping Texas safe. Thank you my friend. Jerry
Jerry Skinner not interested in any of this stuff.
Herb Walker n

I've only this day heard their stories in this collected timeline...Amazing and Inspirational how Carrie and Debbie overcame every set back. It is because, they individually and as family, stood back up in the face of the public everytime. God Be with their Family still here living.
Thank you Jerry. I enjoy all of your videos and wish you the very best.
Dale
Thank you Dale and the best to you also. Jerry
I love Jerry Skinner's Documentary's. He is so respectful and has a wonderful voice!
Thank you Nora. Jerry
Another fascinating gem. Thank you Jerry.
I have watched 3 of Jerry's videos of 3 great people. Needless to say I am a wreck now, very close to tears. You think these people have such great lives with the money, clothes, etc., they have their troubles too. This lady Debbie suffered through a lot. I always loved watching and listening to her on talk shows. Incredible sense of humor, always a laugh. A beautiful, kind lady. RIP Debbie and Carrie.
Fantastic Jerry total class all the way as always
Thank you for sharing these amazing & factual details. These are people we admire from afar in their unrealistic world. Heartbreaking.😩
I never knew much about Debbie Reynolds until I saw the movie “Singing in The Rain”. It became one of my all time favorite movies. Many years ago I was in my local Walmart when I heard a song playing over the store intercom, the song was “It’s a Miracle” or something like that. I loved the song and couldn’t get it out of my head. When I got home I telephoned the store to ask what the song was. They told me it was a personal tape of a guy who worked in the shoe department. I talked to the guy in the shoe department and he told me the song was sung by Debbie Reynolds and was from the album The Singing Nun and I bought the album and still love the song and the album. It’s really ironic because before I saw the movie “Singing in The Rain”. I always thought that I didn’t like musicals.
Hello beautiful good morning
Exceptional, entertaining, and educational film....good narration.
Packed so much fascinating information in less than 30 mins!
Follow ups on past husbands, and Elizabeth Taylor was unexpected and added to the documentary.
Excellent choice of pictures, music was unobtrusive.
Covering details about her poor humble beginnings, conservative religious upbringing and how her mother reacted to her daughter’s involvement with the film industry answered some question.
Debbie apparently having to sleep in her Cadillac due to her husband spending her money is shocking.
Having a past experience with a narcissist makes me wonder if she wasn’t exposed to several....they are indeed charmers. (RUclips has excellent videos on the subject by Dr. Grande and Dr. Ramani).
Thank you for one of the most well done documentaries I’ve seen in a long while!
I have been a fan of Debbie's since the mid 50's. She was such a nice person as well as talented. Being so nice, she did not receive any niceness from men in her life.
My heart hurts from the pain she went through when Carrie died. Both were beautiful and now together ❤️
Thanks for another charming and informative piece of nostalgia.
P
An amazing tribute...
Thank you so much.
I always look forward to your videos!
:)
2018 prophecies of mark Taylor
Many thanks Mr Skinner..you are the best..costas
Two Great Actresses.. Thanks for the movies. 😊♥️... Rest in Peace.
Thank you Jerry. Another great video.
This was an excellent documentary. It reminds us to be ever mindful of the fact that we misunderstand much more than we realize; things are seldom what they seem. I just loved her!
It kind of went from Debbie Reynolds to "The Eddie Fisher story"...glad you made it back to Debbie.
I think he played such a big role in her and her kids' personal life not to mention her best friend. It would be hard to separate it out.
I think he did an awesome job of blending everyone in!
swampmammytheone me too!!!
Thanks Jerry I knew we could count on you to give us a great video biography on Debby, she will be missed. Great job as always, you have a great voice for narration you should be working for TV making documentaries.
Thanks for Debbie. Reynolds a. great person

She and mother are together in heaven now rip you two in heaven
I doubt that
Why? Lol..and how n the heck would u know?!
@Odette Widdicombe...only if they were both supernaturally (from Jesus) born again of the Spirit (as Jesus tells) and walking with Him daily in obedience. I don't know if they got saved and born again.
@@geniemeadows5122 ...yes, I have to agree w you there. No other way but thru Him.
you must be one of Debbie step daughters. What a great woman she was.
My father passed away at the age of 97 on the 24th of December, one day after Carrie was stricken ill. I can never forget. He and my mother were movie buffs and big fans of Debbie.
Thank you Mr. Skinner, I have seen many of your productions,and as I have stated before this,Excellent work Sir . Thank You For this!
Thank you Tony, you are being kind. Jerry
Jerry, you out did yourself on this one. All your vids are great, but this one is on a higher level.
Terrific movie; you did it again Jerry. Thank you.
Wow, I had not a single clue. Once again Jerry, you have amazed me. Thanks for doing the leg work and far greater, the amazing job on producing a quality channel. I have no higher regard.
I had no idea of the tragic life of Debbie, and her daughter Carrie. May they lovingly rest in peace.
Garyt Bradbury l
Debbies life was tragic, too trusting of terrible men, I don’t see where Carries life was tragic, she was a drug addict, her choice, which was another tragedy for Debbie
Jerry Skinner, Very well done ! Thank you.
I remember when Eddie Fisher divorced her for Elizabeth Taylor , Fisher was the most hated man in America .
He deserted Mike Todds’ trust. Even tho Todd had tragically passed away, the trust should have lasted a lifetime.
@@MsBonijoni I
Such a beautiful lady and talented actress , how sad that her men ruined her life and left her penniless but thankfully she had no problem acting and straightened herself out again ! What a bittersweet life ! Rip Debbie and Carrie ❤️
Hello beautiful merry Christmas
