Dear  Fellow Artists, 

This afternoon I received a phone call from Megan McDonnell, daughter of Tim 
and Dierdre McDonnell, actors and artists and former members of the Cleveland 
Playhouse "company." 

Tim McDonnell passed away Sunday, June 1st, 2003 of a heart attack.  He had 
been out jogging. 

Diedre McDonnell (Tim's wife) 
 and Megan can be reached at 

570 Isham  #3 A
New York 10034
212-304-8130

There will be a private family service midweek, and a memorial service on 
Sat.   Megan's e mail address is nutmegmc1 at aol.com

Neil and I last worked with Tim when he was Falstaff in our production of 
"Merry Wives of Windsor" at Stan Hywet about 10 years ago.  Tim appeared with 
Neil in  "Taming of the Shrew" at Weathervane, and numerous productions at 
Players Guild of Canton.  

He and Diedre, and their 3 children,  returned to New York in the mid 1990's 
to return to acting.  Megan indicated he played Falstaff several more times 
along with performing in a number of various productions of the Henry  plays. 
(Megan had recently performed  Merry Wives with her Dad)  He was employed as an 
actor by Hospital Audiences, Inc. 

A genuinely fine actor, husband, father and all around good guy. 
Please address your condolences to  their home. 

Thanks
MaryJo Alexander and Neil Thackaberry 
Actors' Summit Theater
