Geocache Description:

One Hundred Fortyeighth in the Famous People (FP) Series - Linda Gray
Linda Ann Gray
(born September 12, 1940 in Santa Monica, California) is an American actress, best known for her role as Larry Hagman's long-suffering wife, Sue Ellen Ewing on the television soap opera Dallas. She was also a director of the popular show.

Gray returned to the role in the series finale in 1991 and again in the reunion films "J.R. Returns" in 1996 and "The War of the Ewings" in 1998. She later starred in the short-lived FOX soap opera, Models, Inc., which was a spin-off of Melrose Place. Gray also had a recurring role in The Bold and the Beautiful (playing Priscilla Kelly in 2004 and 2005).

In 2001, Gray portrayed Mrs. Robinson in the West End production of Charles Webb's The Graduate. Coincidentally, Gray was the model whose stockinged leg appeared in the promotional poster for the film version of The Graduate 34 years earlier. Gray's legs made another appearance in a BVD underwear commercial in the 1980s. Her Dallas co-star Larry Hagman had earned an endorsement contract for the garment maker, having him dressed in J.R. Ewing attire (while not actually posing as J.R. due to contractual obligations with CBS). In one commercial, he looks at an unseen woman's legs exiting from a luxury car, then looks into the camera and says "You know, there's just some things I can't get enough of!" The legs from the car belonged to Gray.

In 2006, Gray co-starred in the short film "Reflections of a Life", which was written, directed by and starring Kathi Carey. She portrayed the best friend of a woman undergoing treatment for breast cancer. She is currently touring the United Kingdom in the stage version of Terms of Endearment which moves into the West End in 2008.

It does seem a little strange that all the streets east of Needmore Cemetery are named after characters in the show Dallas. In fact, to get to Needmore Cemetery, you will have to pass Sue Ellen Drive. The cemetery certainly will Needmore attention than the Ewings ever will, but that's showbiz. And of course, every now and then, a good cemetery cache turns out to be a small little bison tube that really is hidden so well, you may have to look around for a bit to find it. But I'll bet you, that you can spot the general location before you even enter the gate. It really is, one of those cachey looking spots.
