I only remember her work as an actor because she played the mom on Step by Step which was a Brady Bunch knock-off on the TGIF lineup in the '90s. But I do know she had a lot of pseudo-scientific views on health and nutrition and was fairly public about them… And at her worst, she even went so far as to suggest in 2013 that the Sandy Hook shooting was the result of the perpetrator’s “toxic” diet and being exposed to common household cleaners. Suffice to say, I don’t think she was a very reasonable person. So I’m just gonna file this away as “TV mom from my youth dies.”
