"Mr. Allen"

What radio comedienne began her spot on each show with the quip, "Mr. Allen, Mr. Allen"?

Hint: She was married to the star of the show for 25 years, until his death. Then she re-married, and both of them lived long enough to celebrate their 25th anniversary, also. How many Hollywood stars do you know that celebrated two silver wedding anniversaries?

It was Portland Hoffa, the wife of Fred Allen.
