Do You recognize Elly Mae Clampett -
(aka - Donna Douglas)

It's Donna Douglas- or better known as Elly Mae on the "Beverly Hillbillies".

                        This pix is how she looks 'today'

What a delight it was to meet her and listen to her as she recently shared her wonderful testimony at my local church Although she has obviously 'matured' over the years - now being 76 years old - - she presents a very personable attitude to her audience. It was a joy to get to meet and talk with her.

Her assistant for the evening was one of the girls she had gone to school with! They have maintained friendship all these years. Donna has never forgotten 'where she came from' !
