Tony Dow is alive

In a very bizarre development, the wife of Leave It To Beaver actor Tony Dow now says she was mistaken in announcing his death. 
Los Angeles ABC reporter George Pennacchio just posted on Facebook that Dow’s wife, Lauren, mistakenly thought her husband had died during the night at their home and mistakenly informed Dow’s management that he had passed. 
Dow is reportedly near death, receiving hospice care at home. 
Deadline has reached out to Dow’s management team. 
“Tony Dow is still alive,” reports Pennacchio. “I had a conversation with his wife, Lauren. She is understandably distraught and grief-stricken about what’s been going on with Tony’s health battle these past months. He’s been in hospice care at their home, and based on some health issues overnight, Lauren inferred that Tony had passed away to some people close to her and the word quickly spread. Lauren admits she’s been ‘a little fuzzy’ these days – understandable.

    Maybe the hospice worker hollered at him.

    I remember when Bob Hope was near death. Every other day there were reports of him dying on FR.

    Prayers for Tony and those who love him. Been there with my mom who was in ICU for 3 months. Died on All Souls Day.

    He may be a registered Democrat and the hospice wanted to keep him alive so he could early vote?

    Eddie is no longer with us. There was a FR thread.
I think he became a cop after acting...
I know you were joking.
