Dawn Wells, the actress who went on a fictional three-hour tour in 1964 and found lifelong fame as the bubbly girl-next-door Mary Ann Summers on the TV sitcom Gilligan’s Island, died Wednesday of complications from COVID-19 one of more than 341,000 Americans to die in the pandemic.
Unfortunately, Wells’ life that ended at age 82 was not as neat and tidy as the television show about tour boat passengers shipwrecked in a storm on a deserted island somewhere in the Pacific.
