TRIBUNE - “Desperate Housewives” actress Kathryn Joosten dies at 72, Jun 08, 2012

 "“Desperate Housewives” actress Kathryn Joosten, who won two Emmy awards for her supporting role as a nosy neighbor on the recently ended hit show, died of lung cancer on Saturday, her spokeswoman said. She was 72-years-old.
Joosten died with her family at her side at home in Westlake Village, 40 miles northwest of Los Angeles, said her publicist, Nadine Jolson. She had battled the disease since being diagnosed in 2001.
Her death came less than three weeks after the airing of the final episode of “Desperate Housewives” in which Joosten’s character, Karen McCluskey, died of the illness with the Johnny Mathis song “Wonderful, Wonderful” playing in her room."
