What a fabulous tribute to the grand dame of AMC!! I had been watching AMC since I was 8 (now 40) and as much as Phoebe used to exasperate me and drive me nuts with her uppity attitude, I figgin' loved her character. I loved her relationship with Wallingford, with Benny, her snipes with Erica and most of with niece Brooke.. Ahh.. the golden days of AMC.. I was saddened at RW's passing and I have truly fond memories of her and her character, Phoebe. May she RIP always and know that we miss her!

OMG, started watching this completely composed and by the end my eyes were full of tears. Everyone misses Phoebe! What can one say she was just Phoebe, INIMITATABLE Phoebe Tyler Wallingford; and who could forget Langley as well? His carney past with Myrtle & she holding his secrets. His affair with Opal and her shaking him down for cash to build the Glamorama. All My Children is practically in our blood. It will take a long time to get over the passing of an era so ingrained in our psyches.

I watched All My Children every summer as a child and teenager. I liked Phoebe and the Professor a lot! It was classy actors like Ruth Warrick, James Mitchell, Macdonald Carey, and others that made television so special then. Times have really changed, and I am so glad that I can relive these moments on YouTube. Thanks, Ms. Warrick, for standing up for civil rights as well. It is rare today that famous individuals publicly stand for something despite the risks to their careers.

my favorite Phoebe line was her telling Mona that Mona was the mir epitone of financial irresposibility..I still laugh at that...we'll never forget you

I met Ruth once and I could tell that just by the way she looked at me and spoke to me that she was in love with her fans and her life. She was lovely.

I, my mother and my Army Sergeant father got hooked on AMC just after I got out of high school in '77. Those were definitely the golden days of AMC. That show was a hoot. (Remember Billy Clyde Tuggle and the first Opal?) My mom, sister and I drove down to a mall in Houston, TX to see Ruth and two other AMC actors making a personal appearance. She was incredibly beautiful (I have no idea of her age at the time). I'll never forget her or Myrtle Fargate (played by the late Eileen Hurley).

Thinking of Ruth Warrick during AMC's ABC finale today. Phoebe was the unofficial Queen Bee of Pine Valley, and she played her perfectly.

Thanks so very much for posting. What a lovely montage. I had the true honor of not only meeting this sensational woman of grace and talent - but interviewing her. A story in itself! She was the kindest, nicest most lovely person! One of my very favorite people to have ever interviewed. (And I've interviewed over 100). She was talent and elegance.

of course, she will ALWAYS be Mrs. Citizen Kane. widely hailed as "the best movie ever made".
