I just signed on to check this myself. Larry's death was mentioned in the latest "This is True" mailing (see
http://www.thisistrue.com)
The info said that Larry Hovis always wore gloves on HH to hide his wedding ring since Sgt. Carter was supposed to be single. Since 1990, he taught acting at Texas State University in San Marcos. Hovis was diagnosed with cancer 3 months ago and died in hospice on Sept. 9th.

I did not remember his name on the show was Carter. Am I not correct that the Sgt. on "Gomer Pyle" was also Sgt. Carter? Must have been a name shortage in the mid-60s. Anyway, a funny show and a wonderful comedic actor. Most of them gone now from HH -- who is still alive from the main cast? LeBeau? Kinchloe?
