I have always loved the Pink Panther because I have always lived my life by the moto that I picked up on. The Pink Panther never says a word but always in trouble that's exactly how I feel in real life. God bless you and RIP.

Di grande talento artistico, bravissima interprete canora, di una bellezza di tipo mediterraneo fuori del comune. Mi associo con mesto rimpianto e sentitissimo cordoglio, a tutti coloro che nel mondo l'hanno ammirata e amata. Indelebile ricordo (omnia humana brevia et caduca sunt et infiniti temporis nullam partem occupantia - Seneca, Consolationes, 20,8)

Her brief cameo role in The Pink Panther as I am sure many feel will go down in history with her song & samba dance. She was a girl of extra ordinary talent with a great voice. I was 9 when I seen the Pink Panther. She will alway be remembered!!!!

Dear Fran, I just found this guest book tonight for you, so thought I would take just a moment to thank you for all the great years of entertainment and grace you brought to us all! I loved your singing ever since I was a youngster and what a beautiful lady you were! You were definitely a 'one of a kind' special talent, and losing you was a sore loss for us all, indeed. Praying wherever you are you are in bliss, and all is well. Sending love, gratitude and appreciation out to you, always and...

Beautiful woman, underated talent and her performance in the Pink Pather, singing Meglio Strasera, is unforgettable. Never tire of watching it or her.
