Susan Buckner, best known to moviegoers as Grease‘s bubbly cheerleader Patty Simcox, died peacefully surrounded by loved ones in Miami on May 2.
Her death was announced by family. Buckner’s Grease character was the Rydell High cheerleading pal of Olivia Newton-John’s Sandy.
The 1978 film also starred John Travolta and Stockard Channing. Born on January 28, 1952, in Seattle, Washington, Buckner was crowned Miss Washington in 1971 and represented the state in the Miss America pageant the following year.
