Been watching his Daniel Boone shows on Retro TV for a couple months now and have been not only intriqued but heartened that the “American” storylines and characters (Daniel, his family, Mingo and assorted friends and associates ...including some Native Americans) show much integrity, honesty, keep their word, are genuine, hard working, earnest and neighborly. Fess Parker was a “natural” at this (being a genuine, honest, real American)!
Fess is the same age as my father, as tall and built the same..., my father, Daniel Boone, Davy Crocket and Fess Parker were my heros growing up, wise, wonderful men I could look up to! Sad at Fess Parker’s passing. Prayers for his family.
Mingo!
Wasn’t he played by Ed Ames?
Sure could throw a tomahawk!
