She was inspirational!

Rest in peace Ms. Day!

Sad to hear but she lived a long life and she devoted so much of her energy to pets.

I always liked her.

I always remember that book when I think of Doris Day: The Thing About Jane Spring where she fashioned herself after doris day...was a fun read.

Loved her movies!

She was such a great talent and very versatile.

Que sera sera!

She will be missed. Enjoyed her talent immensely.

An icon from another era. , when being a sweetheart was a little sexy. I remember warbling Que Sera as a kid. I was older when I saw the movie, but that scene when she is loudly singing so her missing son hears it always stayed with me.

RIP Doris....you entertained a lot of people through the years, and best of all

saved a lot of furbabies from cruelty and not being loved.

I remember looking forward to watching The Doris Day Show each week and her commitment to helping animals.

I love what she did for animals via the Doris Day Foundation.

What a lady! RIP

I just googled her last week. I was watching an old movie of hers with James Garner and was wondering how old she was when she made the movie. I was surprised and happy to see she was still alive, and now I am sad. :-((((

Married four times. That makes me sad for her. She was such a sweet gal.

Never a big fan. In her last years on the screen, they were filming her through multiple layers of shear cloth to hide her age. It's too bad her personal life was never anything at all like her film persona.

Wow, I didn’t realise how old she was, what an amazing life and legacy she’s left behind. RIP Ms. Day.

Many years ago, when I was first thinking of advocating for animals, I wrote to Doris Day and Cleveland Amory. Each replied with long, personal letters. I'm sure I still have them. At some point much later--and totally unrelated to me--the Doris Day Animal League gave a generous grant to our local animal shelter. She was admirable in many ways.

Her smile always lit up the screen. She was a beautiful woman both inside and out. RIP Doris.

RIP Doris...Just finished watching Love Me or Leave Me, one of her best movies imo. That voice! Clear as a bell!

We are not far from Carmel Valley, where she lived. There are a number of celebrities out here, all of whom, like Doris, live quietly. About 25-27 years ago we were dining in a Carmel café and she came in with some friends and they sat at the adjacent table. No one bothered them, of course. In her late sixties, she was beautiful. Clear skin, blond hair, and a pale blue and white sweater that set off her coloring.

She was very fierce for animals, as a couple of our friends learned. One of my bffs called Doris with a question about no-kill shelters, as her cat had just had kittens. What she received was a personal blast from DD about spaying, and why had it not been done to my friend's cat? Then another friend had a dog, a big Akita, who accompanied him everywhere, usually in the guy's closed Jeep. One day the guy went to the Carmel post office, stopped for just a minute, left the dog in the car with the windows rolled partly down, and DD happened to pass by. She saw the dog and waited for our friend, and delivered him another blast, about never leaving animals or children in parked cars. She literally tackled every animal problem she encountered. She really lived her beliefs.

I loved her movies as a child and went to see all of them. Move Over Darling was filmed partly in Monterey - not far from Carmel. One of my favorite movies of her is Midnight Lace, with Rex Harrison. If you have not seen, I highly recommend it. In some ways, it is a bit campy and is perhaps humorous without trying to be. The Man Who Knew Too Much with Jimmy Stewart and directed by Alfred Hitchcock is a great movie that shows her talent as a serious actress.

I also like her music from the 1940s (I think) when she sang with big bands.

The saddest thing about her life was her failed marriages, especially the last one, which ruined her financially at the time. I think she was just too trusting of people, but normally that is an admirable trait. I do find her very inspiring
