Isn’t that just so sad? I can’t imagine my parents doing that to me, but I was blessed with awesome parents. I hope my own kids say that about me. ;)
RIP.
That’s an excellent point. I recall when my Mom had cancer and she had to take it, they had to walk a tightrope as she had tumors (kidney, which bleed easily) in her brain. She likely actually died from that.
Robert culp is dead? Darn. I remember him as the FBI guy from The Greatest American Hero, and in that Harlan Ellison episode of Outer Limits about the computer hand.
Amen to that.
It’s odd that you should post that image....
The actor who played the Munchkin coroner in “The Wizard of Oz” died himself just recently. I think he was in his 90’s.
:o]
Eternal peace to you,Gary.
Thank you.
The hemmorage was only one of the many things that happened.
The good doctors at the Beth-Isreal decided not to cut me wide open at the very last moment for my other internal bleedings.

Rest In Peace Sir, and thanks for the many laughs.
Maybe it’s just me, but when I hear of them (and I heard of all of them) they were in threes; not necessarily with other “famous” persons, but with notables, anyway.
Three (and seven) are found throughout the Scriptures, Old and New, so why wouldn’t they apply to death? Or birth, for that matter? Or pregnancies? Car accidents? Household accidents? Personal problems? The list goes on...
Now THAT threw me into the wayback machine! With Mr. Roper as The Mayor.
Greatest American Hero is now on Hulu.com.
I’ve been watching a few lately.
Culp made that show.
I care as well. Whenever I see someone younger than me pass away, it makes me realize that every day above ground is a gift.
Did I watch him much? I was too old for that show. But I did see Dana Plato in Playboy.
What a shame that these kids were exploited by that TV machine.
I hope he is at peace.
Gary Coleman was a passionate proponent of concealed carry, and he was often armed with a pistol. Thus, at least marginally, he was a Second Amendment advocate...
I read yesterday that it was some drug that he was on as a child that stunted his growth.
good post. I have a friend that used to run in similar circles as Gary Coleman did when she was in LA (she had the opportunity to hang out with celebs and he happened to be at the same place on more than one occasion). She claimed it drove him nuts when people would ask him to say the famous catch phrase. People would run after him tauntingly saying, “come on Gary, just say it”, or “what you talkin’ ‘bout Gary?”!
The Saturday night live “A Christmas Carol” spoof was pretty good with Gary uttering “what you talkin’ ‘bout everyone?” at the end.
