He blamed it on drugs but none were found during the autopsy. Probably more likely some kind of psych problem. Her death haunted him for the rest of his life. You're right, he did seem very interested in highlighting the very old as well as the very young.PhilippinesPhilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15921214743105919057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18348841.post-49088494342431638082010-06-12T08:33:34.193+10:002010-06-12T08:33:34.193+10:00Got introduced to him through his black and white ...Got introduced to him through his black and white TV program, People Are Funny.

I am pretty sure I remember watching his show in re-runs(but admittedly I'm not sure) as I was not born until '62 but I loved watching him after school. I especially enjoyed and appreciated how he was able to interact and connect with on a personal level and truly communicate with all people no matter their age, education, Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15771215104977163786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18348841.post-75336757946673906302010-05-28T05:35:00.836+10:002010-05-28T05:35:00.836+10:00I'm from a generation who only knew of his nam...I'm from a generation who only knew of his name but knew nothing else.
