The Note: TV Guide News

A reporter (Genie Francis) looks for the intended recipient of a note written by a passenger aboard a fatal plane crash.

Genie Francis Promises to Deliver Another Emotional Note | Today's News: Our Take | 1/30/2009

In December 2007, Daytime Emmy winner Genie Francis and Ted McGinley helped give Hallmark Channel its highest-rated original movie of the year.
