No problem, bro, as I was confused myself, too, yesterday when I had heard that he passed away.

I saw though that Tony died today. His son Christopher said his dad's management team were premature on his death announcement yesterday.

Even though the beloved "Leave It to Beaver" sitcom series was before my time, probably like yourself, we enjoy watching those reruns. I loved his character Wally Cleaver and truly miss those wholesome family shows. Tony's TV brother Jerry Mathers is 74 yrs old.

Yep, I watched it in re-runs too.

Forgot to mention yesterday that actress / singer Olivia Newton-John passed away Mon morning at her southern CA home at age 73 after a courageous 30 years battle with breast cancer.

Thankful for her, too, as having been a cancer crusader during her fight.

Same here, bro! I had crushes on both her and Charlie's Angels Farrah Fawcett i.e.!

I enjoyed both "Saturday Night Fever" and "Grease"! I miss the golden age of music lyrics like those eras when could actually understand the words!
