I saw him on TV several months ago (don’t remember which program.) It was the first time I had seen him in quite some time. I remember thinking to myself that it looked like he had aged significantly since the last time I saw him. I had no idea he was battling cancer. He will be missed.

"As a child, he acted in such television shows as 'Lassie,' 'Highway Patrol' and 'Make Room for Daddy,' and he also appeared in movies with such stars as Humphrey Bogart and Rod Steiger."

Wow. Who knew!

Very sad, shocking. One of the real gentlemen on the scene.
I too wondered where he was, what he was up to. i recall he was digging into gang members being rolled into the military, reg violating tatoos and all. I was waiting for more and....

I haven’t started searching but if anyone has a link to some of this pls inform me.
