Actor Tom Poston passed away last night from an undisclosed illness at the age of 85. Poston was best known for playing George Utley on Newhart, but he also had memorable guest star roles on The Steve Allen Show, Mork & Mindy and Grace Under Fire.
In 2001, he married Suzanne Pleshette who starred on another Bob Newhart series. Even though the two found love late in life, they were both madly in love and supported each other through their illnesses. Pleshette told Army Archerd he died with her head on his chest. She also added this, "He was just hanging on to get me through this," she has been recovering from tumor surgery, had undergone four separate chemotherapy sessions and was finally able to tell me, "I'm well. I'm healthy. He waited 'til my hair grew back!"

1930 – 2007
Most of us don’t really know who he was, but we all know his name.
I also did not realize Hoku was his daughter until I read the obit.

MSNBC is reporting that Johnny Hart, the creator of the B.C. comic strip died yesterday at the age of 76. His wife said he died doing what he loved, “He had a stroke. He died at his storyboard.” Hart started B.C. in 1958 and was read by over 100 million people in 1,300 newspapers daily.
No word if his comic strip will continue without him.
On a personal note this is one of my favorite comic strips.
