Blog #392-Ed Debevic's-Milwaukee Happy Days party September 18, 1996

February 7, 2022

Every once in a while an old photo job comes to mind.

This was one of those fun jobs at Ed Debevic's restaurant here in Milwaukee on September 18,1996. Some of the cast from "Happy Days" came to help promote being rebroadcast on the cable channel Nick at Night.

Marion Ross who played Mrs. Cunningham or Mrs. C came was so much fun that night.  She said several times to me that she was my real mother once I introduced myself to her.  I became Richie Cunningham for a few hours, not Rich Zimmermann!

Tom Bosley who played Mr. C, Erin Moran who played Joanie Cunningham and Pat Morita who played Arnold the chef also showed up for fun and celebration.

Pat Morita was the nicest guy and is a great comedian! He flipped some burgers that night as he did on "Happy Days" and interacted with everybody.

A good friend of mine and I were hired for the event.  Tom Bosley after posing with about 30 couples said he was done!  Guess I was done too.

Marion Ross is 93 years old now and unfortunately the rest have passed on. Ed Debevic's closed years ago in Milwaukee but the Chicago location is still thriving.

Enjoy a look at the cast in 1996 at Ed Debevic's.

Thanks,

Rich Zimmermann
