  1. Doris Day was one of the singers I’ve always enjoyed listening to and her movies proved her comedic talent even if her personal life wasn’t always happy. It’s probably a typo, the word ‘have’, since Doris Day passed away a few years ago and, no, she didn’t come out of retirement but devoted her time to pets and animal causes. A classy lady!
