The world bid a final farewell to the beloved actress and singer Doris Day on May 13, 2019. The 97-year-old passed away at home in Carmel Valley, California, after battling with pneumonia. If you grew up in the 1950s or ‘60s, Day was a household name; she was adorably chipper, and adored by most of Hollywood’s leading men (think Rock Hudson, Cary Grant, and Clark Gable—swoon!). But Day’s incredible legacy is something altogether more longevous.
