Yes she did, and she's with us yet.
Over at the "Vitaphone Varieties" blog (down while it's switching servers)
there's an archive entry with a georgeous sound clip of her singing in the
1950's. You can hear her sing a bit on The Dick Van Dyke Show, but by that
time her voice had gotten a little husky (not unatrractvely so, I may add).
If I can find that clip I'll post it.

is it her "Santa Baby"-esque song from their Xmas show? I'm
desperately trying to track down a copy of that!
