I am looking forward to this as well, but it's going to be tough watching all those people up there talk about Jeanne when there probably will be lots of tears and what not...

I'm glad they are giving Katherine a memorial service....sounds like it won't be on air till Late July/early August....

I just wish they would invite Kay Alden back to help right the memorial episode and also include the classic background music which is necessary for a time like this.

I'm positive they'll at least use Nadia's Theme.

It's probably the only classic cue they will use.

But I'm really impressed by this decision: its a more than welcome surprise to that they do an entire tribute episode. On Memorial day no less which Y&R has often used for storyline purposes. Thumbs up! This is gonna be heartbreaking. John McCook and Doug Davidson knew Jeanne the longest (on-set), so this is gonna be interesting...

I want them so much to play the 70's "Katherine's theme" music they use to play during more of the dramatic scenes involving Katherine. That's the theme that starts at 7:32 during this clip.

Send it to RC Cates on twitter. He was taking music suggestions not to long ago.

I didn't realize CBS Sunday Morning did a segment on her. Of course, they're wrong about Katherine being the longest serving character on the show, as that distinction belongs to Jill.

Apparently, this was at the end of today's US episode:

THE mirror scene. Talk about one of Y&R's most iconic moments. The writing, the directing and most of all Jeanne Cooper did a terrific job.

It's a breathtaking scene. I posted the video on YouTube, you can find it a few pages back if you want to!

Wow! They really turned this around fast.

Any news if Gina Roma will be there? I know Jeanne and actress that played Gina are very good friends in real life.

The last I heard was Patty Weaver had health issues of her own.

Heartbreaking....

I feel so bad for Jess.

I really do hope that whatever happens they make Katherine's legacy live on.
