I saw this beautiful lady, who reminded me of my mother, in a parade when I was about seven. I waved at her and she waved back and smiled at me. My mother told me that’s Cyd Charisse.

I knew Cyd very well as a close friend of her son Tony Martin Jr. She was an amazing lady, elegant and kind with the sort of sophistication you typically find in royalty. She was the epitome of old Hollywood style and glamour, her presence and grace will be sadly missed as an icon of beauty and talent in this industry.
Cyd was a real movie star and she lived a long happy life. She may be gone from this world, but her legacy and catalog of fine work on the silver screen will be with us forever.

I was fortunate to see Miss Charisse on the big screen at the American Film Institute's renovated thirties theater in Maryland some years ago when they presented a retrospective of her films. Those amazing legs seen on the huge CinemaScope screen in It's Always Fair Weather and Silk Stockings! Singin' in the Rain and The Band Wagon. And a fine actress. A good person. Thank you for gracing our lives forever. RIP

Meeting you was a great thrill, Ms. Charisse. You were as nice as you were beautiful and talented.
Rest in peace, beautiful woman.

I met you on March 10th, 1983. It was a dream come true. We kept in touch after that.
Rest in peace, beautiful one.

I have only recently found her movies et al on the internet and I regret I wasn't able to see them when they were on the movie screens. I have never seen a more talented and beautiful dancer like her. How I wish I could have enjoyed watching her then. Tony Martin was the luckiest guy in the world to have her as his life partner. She is truly missed.
A Guy Fan Who Loved to see you dance.
January 1, 2014
You were one of the best reasons for a guy being caught watching dance or musicals. You were stunning, and the power women have was visible in watching you dance, act, sing, or even give a mere glance with those eyes. Rest, and get ready to dance in the heavens. You've added another reason for many fans to want to go to heaven. (The big guy who formed made and created you, shall surely have stage set for you to perform again) God Bless the family and fortunate people who danced with, acted along side, or those who had the pleasure of sharing their lives with you.

May the God of comfort and tender mercies continue to comfort your family and friends, and may you find comfort in the words found in the Holy Scriptures: "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."" Please accept my sincere condolences during this time of your loss.

For Cyd...
A truly talented lady.
WEEP NOT FOR ME
Do not weep for me when I no longer dwell among the wonders of the earth; for my larger self is free, and my soul rejoices on the other side of pain...on the other side of darkness.
Do not weep for me, for I am a ray of sunshine that touches your skin, a tropical breeze upon your face, the hush of joy within your heart and the innocence of babes in mothers arms.
I am the hope in a darkened night. And, in your hour of need, I will be there to comfort you. I will share your tears, your joys, your fears, your disappointments and your triumphs.
Do not weep for me, for I am cradled
in the arms of God. I walk with the angels, and hear the music beyond the stars.
Do not weep for me, for I am within you;
I am peace, love, I am a soft wind that caresses the flowers. I am the calm that follows a raging storm. I am an autumns leaf that floats among the garden of God, and I am pure white snow that softly falls upon your hand.
Do not weep for me, for I shall never die, as long as you remember me...
with a smile and a sigh.

G-D keep you and condolences to the family.
Like many 'baby-boomers' I grew up watching you glide across the screen, and wishing I could grow up and do the same.
You were a class act and may you and Tony dance forever now.

As a young girl in the sixties, I loved all the musicals that abounded. Cyd was always one of my favorites---so elegant, beautiful and graceful. Imagine my surprise to find out she was only an inch taller than I am! She always appeared more statuesque to a 10 year old girl!
My deepest sympathies to Mr. Martin, their sons, families and friends. Take comfort that she is in Heaven dancing for our Lord and all the angels.

When I was young, I was watching a good movie called the Bandwagon and I saw this beautiful dancer on stage when I found out it was Cyd Charisse I fell in love with her but I was seven years old at the time but her dancing was enduring and I am going to miss her dancing and her beauty My sympathies to her Husband and sons she was a loss to the entertainment world.

I've had a crush on Cyd since I was a teenager. Her beauty, grace and smile made me feel good. My favorite movie of hers was "Party Girl". She held her own with Robert Taylor and Lee J Cobb.Vaya con dios,chula!

To all of Cyd Charisse's family members and friends,
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you now and always because I will never forget Cyd Charisse.
I rarely get to watch the news or read the paper because I have two boys who keep me very busy. I was shocked when I came across this acticle while searching for something in my hometown's newspaper. It seemed as if time had stopped as I read about MY Cyd Charisse. My two boys don't understand why I sat there staring and crying for someone I don't know personally, but one day they will because Cyd was and will always be a very important part of me.
My parents were big fans of Cyd Charisse, and I was the blessed child to receive her name (Cyd Cherrie like Charisse but pronounced like Chari - no "s" sound in the last name). My oldest brother was named after my dad and my grandfather, my sister was named after the famous New York jewelry store, and my dad named me after his second leading lady - Cyd Charisse.
Any chance my parents had, they would go see her, and I was fortunate enough to go with them one time. I was about 5 years old and in Las Vegas when I met the person who I was named after, and I am so proud to have her name, but it never fails. Sometimes, I have to repeat my name over and over or the spelling is incorrect or instead of being a Ms. or Miss I'm a Mr. But none of that bothers me because I know my name is special. One time I was even given her exact name. Everyone asks me if it's short for anything like Cydney or I'm asked where did that name come from because it's so different. Well, we all know the story. After realizing who I was named after, I'm sometimes asked if I can dance and sing like her. I may be tall with long legs, and I've tried the dancing lessons and singing with the neighborhood kids, but I am DEFINITELY NOT THE CYD CHARISSE.
No one forgets me or my name because of her. Some of my friends and people I've only known for a short period of time have named their children Cyd because it is so unique just like the lady we were named after. She seems to give meaning to everything she comes in contact with - even her name.
When I saw her in the Janet Jackson video, I called all of my friends, cousins, EVERYBODY to tell them the lady in the limo with Janet is who I was named after. I was so proud, and my dad was like she still has it go'in on! Thanks Janet!!!
Cyd,
I know Heaven can't get any better, but it did. You are the perfect dancer in Heaven just as you were here on Earth. When you meet my dad, please save a dance for him and let him know it's from Cyd (you and me). I love you!

There are dancers and then there are dancers. Ms. Charisse was one of the most beautiful and talented dancers to ever "trod the boards". Her beauty, grace and style will be forever missed on the stage and on the Silver Screen.
Our thoughts and prayers are sent to Ms. Charisse's family and friends during this very difficult time. She will be sorely missed. Rest in peace, Cyd, and may the angels greet you at the gates of Heaven.

To the families of Cyd Charisse:
It is a blessing to know so many wonderful memories of someone when they are taken from us.
It is a blessing to have lived a life as Cyd Charisse did, to have had such a beautiful blessful life, to have left so many wonderful memories of her very being.
A beauty with such talent, in addition to a long wedded life, is always a sad loss to everyone who knew her, and of all those who knew only OF her.
May her memories be a comfort to everyone who knew her, and for all of those who only knew OF her.

Long ago, as a little black girl in the ghetto, I watched you and thought you were the absolute best. Fifty years later you are still the best. Because of you the art world opened up for me. We love you Cyd; your beauty, grace and talent touched us all. You could REALLY dance. The end of an era.....

Andrew Doherty

When I was in grade school in the 1960s, I was a very young news junkie, but I still had trouble learning to read. At a family gathering, I found a newspaper article about Ms Charisse with a lovely photo. I brought the article to my Mom, in front of all the grownups, and said "This lady is NOT Sid Caesar."
It took some time to understand why everybody found that so funny.
Later on, I came to appreciate her as a performer. She was beautiful and she sure could dance. And 60 years with one husband? In show biz? That says a lot about the couple.
My condolences to her family and friends.

I was born in 1942 and she became known to me during later years. I was in ACapella Choir at Woodrow Wilson H.S. (L.A.) and we presented several musicals with dancing, of course! My thanks go to her, and others as well, for the groundwork that was laid for us. As a Christian, I offer prayers of peace to the family.

I was just a little girl (under 5) when "Silk Stockings" was released. My mother loved watching Cyd Charisse dance. We were Catholic and the movie was on the B list or whatever it was on the Legion of Decency ratings...we were not supposed to go. But my mother took me anyway. It was wonderful and I often have watched it again on late night TV. She was a lovely woman, accomplished actress, and fabulous dancer. I am sure you are proud of her and sad at her loss.

To the family of Cyd Charisse: Never have I ever seen a more graceful, natural, beautiful dancer-celebrity perform on the screen. A partner of the best male dancers also with no equals. You're to be commended for your wonderful marriage to Mr. Tony Martin, another celebrity for over 60 years, so unusual in "Tinseltown".
You've entertained generations with your talent.
Our prayers are for your Husband, Tony Martin, your children, family and friends, that God will give them strength and comfort during this time of loss.

When my mom "made us" watch musicals on TV in the early days, I was mostly bored to tears. But Cyd Charisse changed all that.

She had style, grace, poise, talent as a dancer and actress. She danced and acted from the heart; her soul was truly in her feet. She was just as beautiful a woman on the inside as she was on the outside. The two movies she made, "The Unfinished Dance" and "Fiesta" were two of my family's favorite movies; as my young daughter was striving to be an accomplished ballerina; and, my family's heritage was that of being Spanish. What a sad day for us all who loved, admired, respected this most beautiful dancer/actress lady.
