Jean
officially retired from acting in the early '80s, but she continued to
be very involved with theater groups in the Palm Springs area where she
has won several awards. She worked on productions such as Elephant Man,
Steel Magnolias (as Weezer) and Surprise. Jean passed in 2005
And
it's not surprise to any fan of TAGS that Mayberry stories featuring
Jean Carson and both of her Mayberry characters (convict Naomi and "Fun
Girl" Daphne) are still among the most popular episodes from the entire
run of the series.
