A beloved television star took to social media to pay tribute to a former colleague and fans thought it was perfect. Maureen McCormick<\/strong> appeared in two episodes of the series Camp Runamuck<\/em><\/a> with David Ketchum<\/strong> before joining The Brady Bunch<\/em>. After learning of Ketchum’s death<\/a>, McCormick shared a throwback video of the two together and included a sweet note.<\/p>\n McCormick took to Instagram<\/a> and posted a black and white photo still from filming that showed her with Ketchum. She wrote, “Rest In Peace David Ketchum. What an honor it was to work with you way back in 1966 on the tv show ‘Camp Runamuck.’ I will always remember your kindness. Thank you.”<\/p>\n Ketchum played the role of “Spiffy” in the 26-episode series that ran for just one season. McCormick played “Maureen Sullivan” in the pilot episode, which aired in 1965, and appeared again in episode 16, which aired in 1966.
