Talk about old memories. This is Jody McCrea son of actor Joel McCrea. I used to date him back when I was a girl. Maybe 16. I was to young to date . I met him at Zinks record shop. He said Hi I'm Jody McCrea and I said Hi I'm Bonnie Groves. I didn't know his father was a famous actor. Jody was going to school at the New Mexico Military institute. NMMI.
We used to walk to the movies together. Effie remembers this.
I never let him walk me home I just met him up at the corner. One Sat. here he came walking down the street with another boy looking for me. They were knocking on doors. Effie and Momma went to the door. I ran and hid in my closet. I knew I was in real bad trouble. Momma met him. She talked to him forever it seemed like. I wouldn't come out. I never saw him again. Momma never said a word to me. I guess she didn't tell Daddy either or he would have beat the hell out of me.
Any way he played Bone Head in the Surfs up movies. I read he died in Roswell . He was 74. He had give up the movies and became a cattle rancher in Roswell.
