Buck Rogers in the 25th Century leading man Gil Gerard died at 82 at his Georgia home on Tuesday following a brief battle with cancer, his wife Janet said.

'Early this morning Gil - my soulmate - lost his fight with a rare and viciously aggressive form of cancer,' Janet said.

Janet continued, 'From the moment when we knew something was wrong to his death this morning was only days.'

Janet added: 'No matter how many years I got to spend with him it would have ever been enough. Hold the ones you have tightly and love them fiercely.'

Prior to his role on Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, Gerard portrayed Dr. Alan Stewart on a total of 303 episodes of The Doctors from 1973–1976.

Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, according to a synopsis, saw 'the 20th century astronaut [emerge] out of 500 years of suspended animation into the 25th century to become Earth's greatest hero and to explore the unknown reaches of deep space.'

The Arkansas-born actor appeared in all 32 episodes of the series, which ran two seasons from 1979–1981, and was broadcast on NBC.

Having once been a Blockhead myself on other issues throughout life, I can feel some amount of understanding about Self-Imposed Blindness. The only thing I can do with all that I have learned, especially in the last 10 years now that I don’t have an Employer dictating some very bad things, is never cooperate with Mandates/Orders/Laws that are against my own life and natural law. The Reservation in Brave New World takes on a whole new meaning in the context of what the Govt. does with those who didn’t cooperate like me and you and others? I hope we don’t find out anytime soon.

“...lost his fight with a rare and viciously aggressive form of cancer,’ Janet said.” Turbo cancer... Could it be that he died safely and effectively?

Oh, good grief. He was 82.

When you're 82 you can go from chipper and healthy to dead rather quickly.

So many people have died safely and effectively from the vax, whether 15 minutes after taking it or several years, that people will never admit that we allowed ourselves to be poisoned by the our government, media, and medical establishments.
