Donna McCall Cheerleader, Donna McCall, Butch Patrick :He’ll be 57 on Monday, but a birthday isn’t the only thing Butch Patrick is celebrating.

The actor, who is best known for playing Eddie Munster on the popular ’60s hit show, is engaged to former Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleader Donna McCall at the age of 57.

McCall, a retired hospital pharmacist, e-mailed Patrick a few years ago to say that something had triggered her memory of him.

“He e-mailed me back with his cell phone number,” McCall said. “I was really, really nervous when I called him. I felt like I was 10 years old again. He put me quite at ease. He handed the phone to his mom and I got to talk to her for a little bit.”

McCall was known as Donna Auerbach from 1976 to 1979.

“He e-mailed me back with his cell phone number,” McCall said. “I was really, really nervous when I called him. I felt like I was 10 years old again. He put me quite at ease. He handed the phone to his mom and I got to talk to her for a little bit.”

Then a few years ago fate struck when Donna McCall managed to reconnect with Patrick and they met for the first time ever this year at DraculaCon II in Pennsylvania. Well it must have been love at first sight, because the two are now getting married!

Donna McCall who has a crush on him since he appeared in the 1960s TV show.
