RIP.
Another book for me to read. Thanks.

Sad to hear. RIP.
Wow was he the kid in Lassie?
Tony Snow had colon cancer -- the silent killer with rarely any symptoms until it's too late.
God bless you, Mr. Blankly. You were one of the good guys.
>>Damn, too young. I always liked Tony.<<
I agree. He was sharp as a whip, had a great sense of humor and knew how to separate analysis from personal opinion.
Only a few years older than me — jeeze.
Prayers for the family.
Good man, too young. God bless Tony and his family.
I’m going to miss Tony. He was one of the few columnist and commentators today who actually made sense.
I was really worried when I saw how much he lost weight in his last few TV appearances.
I suspected he was battling cancer. I was right.
R.I.P., Mr. Blankley.
PING!
No. That was Jon Provost
Guys who died before their time and whom I really miss:
Tony Blankley
Tony Snow
Eric Breindel
Lee Atwater
Some time ago I saw an article from Tony and remarked that I hadn’t seen anything from his remarkable mind recently.
He was a happy warrior for the conservative cause and never stooped to ad hominem attacks.
Like Tony Snow he may be followed as a model but cannot be replaced.
The obits say he was on Lassie. I don't know if he was the kid -- also on Sky King, Highway Patrol, Make Room for Daddy.
But there are only three entries for him on imdb: Highway Patrol, Alfred Hitchcock Presents, and the movie, The Harder They Fall. Maybe imdb isn't so good with early television credits.
RIP Tony and prayers for your family.
Blankley is a Big Loss, one of the intelligent ones. RIP.
Rest in peace, Tony.
What a shame. I always liked Tony. RIP
Rest In Peace
RIP.
