Shirley Jones outlasts another one.

No, seriously,  their parallels went beyond both being early 70's TV moms of shitloads of kids   (http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/11/25/arts/television/florence-henderson-brady-bunch-dies.html)

Quotecast in "Wish You Were Here," a musical comedy about a summer camp for grown-ups, in 1952. The show was a hit, but Ms. Henderson left early when she was cast as the female lead, Laurey, in the national tour of "Oklahoma!" The movie role went to Shirley Jones, but her theater and television careers took off from there. And Ms. Jones turned up as a sitcom mom with five children on "The Partridge Family" at the same time the Bradys were on the air.
