[edit] Marie and Mel

Marie Alberta Massey is mostly known as being the much long-suffering and put-upon girlfriend of diner owner, Mel Sharples. Alternately they would love one another, and other times, they would get into screaming tantrums with one another. Mel called her "puppy toes". Although Marie, more than anything, loved Mel, she could get really angry when even a hint of someone was looking at him. She even worked at Mel's Diner, for a time, after Florence Jean Castleberry left and Belle Dupree came to work.

She was friendly with Alice Hyatt and Vera Louise Gorman-Novak during the time she worked at Mel's. Although, rarely seen after that, Marie was mentioned frequently, and made appearances up to the eighth season.
