LOS ANGELES - A posthumous star honoring "Bewitched" star Elizabeth Montgomery was unveiled on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in a rainy Friday ceremony.

Montgomery "is probably in the heavens laughing at us as we stand in the rain," said honorary Hollywood Mayor Johnny Grant.

In the television show, Montgomery portrayed a witch trying to live as a housewife. The sitcom ran from 1964 into the early 1970s.

She died in 1995 at age 62. Among those attending the ceremony was her widower, actor Robert Foxworth.

"It is a great tribute to her that there are so many of you here," he said during the ceremony on Hollywood Boulevard.

It's been long overdue for a great lady who appeared on one of the greatest sitcoms of all time! Congratulations to Elizabeth, her family, friends and fans.

I agree!! I wished I could have been there it would have been so much fun.

Congrats to EM and her loved ones!! I'm happy that Robert Foxworth was able to be there and her kids accepted on her behalf.

Now, am I the only one here who feels Dick York should also have a star on the Walk of Fame?? I sure hope he'll get one eventually because I think his contributions to the show were just as important as EM's. Does Agnes Moorehead have one? I think she does, but I'm not positive.

Wow, this is WAY overdue. So overdue, in fact, that I thought she already had a star there years ago.

Congratulations to EM and her family!
