Join us as we pay tribute to Patty Maloney, who left us on March 31st, 2025, at 89, after a life that lit up screens big and small! 🌟 From her unforgettable turn as Alice Bates in "Little House on the Prairie" to her quirky role as Chewbacca’s son Lumpy in the "Star Wars Holiday Special," and the honking alien Honk in "Far Out Space Nuts," Patty’s talent shone bright. Standing just 3’11”, she danced with Ringling Bros. Circus in her youth, then pivoted to puppeteering after losing her husband in 1968—only to soar again in Hollywood despite battling strokes and macular degeneration later in life. Her four-decade career, often alongside Billy Barty, was a testament to grit and joy, touching fans across generations. Let’s celebrate this unstoppable spirit—share your favorite Patty moment below!
