Al Lewis, better known as Grandpa on the Munsters, passed away today at the age of 95. I guess he'll get Herman back under control now...
Actor, basketball scout, restauranteur, political candidate... and six foot one, too! I never thought he was that tall. More of the story here

I've never heard of him, but he seemed like a class act. May the Lord bless him and keep him near.

Yeap, 95 is a long run. Especially since he did do a lot of the things that the medical society says is bad for ya!
RIP.

Funny, BBC is reporting him as 82, not 95. Not like them to get things like that wrong.
I remember watching the munsters and thinking it was great, they were re-runs of course, I'm far too youn g to remember the original. He seemed to come across as a really nice guy. [ 02-05-2006, 08:29 AM: Message edited by: Aragorn1 ] |
