Back in the 1940s Candy made several appearances on the "Jimmie Jackson Show" broadcast over the Warner Brothers radio station, KFWB, as well as appearing on Jackson's long running "Memory Lane" TV show. An interesting bit of trivia is that Jimmie Jackson's lovely wife, Radio and Television's Hollywood Hostess, Anita Coleman, was a native of Louisiana as was Candy. Whenever Candy visited the home of Jimmie and Anita she would always prepare her famous "seafood gumbo" for him which, of course, Candy loved. Towards the end of 1998 Candy and Jimmie had a nostalgic reunion, but sadly Candy passed away the following year followed by Jimmie some 17 months later.
