And Mel Tillis. That’s three.

Guess David Cassidy starts the next batch.

Davy is okay but Charlie? Man Charlie missed Gabriel’s calling long time ago.

Unless I misunderstood your comment, Cassidy appears to still be alive but not by much. Useless trivia: David Cassidy appeared as a contestant on Donald Trump’s “Celebrity Apprentice” which aired in 2011. He was the first one fired.

I’m not disagreeing but I’ve seen nothing official. Even his fan site just says he’s “very sick” per his son. Wikipedia is usually the first ones to post anything official and, as of now, they don’t have it.

Did she also appear in ‘Evening Shade’ as Charles Durnning’s ditzy wife? That is one of my favorite old shows, with Burt Reynolds & Marilou Henner.
