Simply amazing, when you count up all the ways she was embedded into the pop culture:
- She was Harrison Ford's girlfriend in American Graffitti
- She was the sister on Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman
- She played Hotzi Totzi on Welcome Back, Kotter
- She was Mrs. Fackler in Police Academy
- She was a panelist on The Match Game
And unfortunately, she was involved in a sad non-make-believe event in our culture as well: Her fiance was a Port Authority policeman who was killed on 9/11.
But the story doesn't stop there. In 2005 she moved to Florida to take care of an ailing sister. There she collapsed and went into a coma. She woke up in the hospital fully alert a couple days later, and was discharged and sent home. A few days after that she went to take a nap and never woke up. She was 52.
And here's the kicker: She got her start in the 1971 Clint Eastwood movie Dirty Harry. She played the corpse. Like I said, simply amazing.

I developed such a crush on Debralee when she starredon the minor sitcom "Angie."

And she had a great line in Police Academy 3 when she wanted to join the police force to be with her husband: "We can share guns, ammo -- all the things that make a marriage work."

She was great on "The Match Game" and "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman", too.

On July 16, 2006 Mayor McMahon, while attending the 3rd annual International Latin Festival at Reading's City Park, voiced his disapproval of a recent law enacted by the city of Hazelton. The Hazleton law, which allows for a fine of $1,000 if a home is rented to illegal aliens, as well as making English the official language of the city

Gosh, I enjoyed Scott's work in every role I saw her play - and she was as cute as a button!

The role she played on Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, was Mary's sister, Cathy Shumway.
Was she related to Gordon?

My mother admires so much Debralee Scott. She says there is not a better example for her children than Debralee. I don't know if she is right, becuase I don't know this woman enough, but if my mother thinks that, she should have her own reasons.
