RIP Mr. Nelson.
Who is left from that era of family sit coms? The only ones I can think of right now are Tony Dow, Jerry Mathers, and Ken Osmond.

The Nelsons were roll models for America. Sad that David was the last of them. He was a talented guy.

I think Billy Gray, Elinor Donahue and Lauren Chapin (”Father Knows Best’s” Bud, Princess and Kitten) are still with us, but I think Elinor is the only doing any regular work.

My Mom had the same reaction when I just told her the news, she thought he was much younger. God Bless the Nelson family
