Miss Ohio of 1956



the comment on my last entry had me wondering what became of Roberta Palmer. all I rememberd was that the East Cleveland native had done p.r. for the local tv series "The Ohio Story" & appeard in the columns of the day for a romance with singer Tommy Leonetti.

what a surprise to discover that she married singer Frank Porretta -- perhaps best known for the 1970 film of "Song of Norway." they had 5 children   including Matthew Porretta who playd Will Scarlet in "Robin Hood: Men in Tights."

unfortunately she died last summer.
