I remember hearing about the character of Marge, but that was a bit before my time. I'll have to look up some old commercials on YT.

Type Palmolive commercial Madge and they have several commercials.

Thanks! Ironic that an actress endorsing Palmolive would be airing on a soap aired by P&G. LOL Was this before The Doctors debuted?

She was on EoN in 58 0r 59.

For many years I have seen old write-ups stating that Jan Miner[Palmolive's Madge the Manicurist] appeared on EON. In reading an old Radio TV Mirror from 1959, I found out that her character's name was Carol Rich. I believe Mrs. Rich was a neighbor to the Karrs. I read about the neighbors in the 1950s EON synopses on the EON Homepage. Ms. Miner appeared in numerous radio soaps. Just a tidbit I wanted to share! The article also says that her co-star was an actor named Skip Homeier. If he played her husband, that character's name was Lee Rich.

Some more tidbits...Skip Homeier started out as a child actor and was in numerous shows and films for decades. Trekkies may remember him from his 2 appearances on TOS as Dr. Sevrin and Melakon. He's still around but retired from acting long ago. Jan Miner was also married IRL to a soapster, Richard Merrell. Oldtime OLTL fans may remember him as Viki's butler, Herron, from back in the day when her kids were little.

She was married to Terry O'Sullivan[Arthur Tate, SFT] in the 50's.

Thanks for sharing!! Is it OK if I send the anniversary photo to Sharon Gabet? She posts a lot of vintage photos on her FB page.
