This interview had me crying pretty much the whole way through.
Haven't cried at an episode of Gunsmoke yet, but that did it for me.
The part about them being in the grocery store and her seeing the advertisement of him at the end of an aisle, and realizing that she was right there with him in the flesh... I was bawling.
The fact that her son was a huge Gunsmoke fan and he ended up with 'Marshal Dillon' as his step dad... it was all like a dream come true.
But it was real.
So I just looked at the autobiography where I have it bookmarked and it's the part that talks about when he met/married Janet...
And apparently her son's name is Jim too.
I think it's safe to say that the Gunsmoke universe is most closely associated with the name of James and all its variations, names carry a vibration/archetype and that's the one this show belongs to.
