In 1942, Annette Funicello was born in Utica NY. She relocated with her family to Southern California when Annette was four years old. In the 1950’s, she broke into the national spotlight as the heartthrob of the Mickey Mouse Club television show. In the 1960’s Funicello starred in a series of beach movies. In 1992, she publicly disclosed that she was battling multiple sclerosis. In discussing her illness, Annette explained, "I think you only have two choices in this kind of situation. Either you give in to it or you fight it. I intend to fight." The rest of us, whatever the nature of our burdens or challenges, are wise to do likewise. Annette's philosophy on life is straightforward: "Life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful." The following notable men and women agree.
