Old Bay

Or
Baying at the Tomb
Frances Bay, the Rye Lady from Seinfeld, has died at the age of 82. She didn’t begin acting until the 1950s, but found notable roles witnessing Betsy Russell’s bareback riding in Private School, playing grandmother to Fonzie and Happy Gilmore, Kyle MacLachlan's doddery aunt in Blue Velvet, Rosco P. Coltrane’s sister, and therefore, Boss Hogg's sister-in-law, and of course, Mrs. Menges in Critters 3. She found a final slice of fame as Mabel Choate, the woman Jerry steals a rye bread from, which eventually cost Jerry’s dad the presidency of Del Boca Vista.
