And then they turned out the lights

TV lost one of its favorite mothers Saturday when Barbara Billingsly died.  Today it lost one of its greatest dads when Tom Bosley died at the age of 83.  Mr. Bosley played Howard Cunningham on Happy Days for 11 years.

Johnny Sheffield who played Boy in the 1940's Tarzan films with Johnny Weismuller. I saw the movies (over and over) on TV so that sort of makes him a TV child star even though by the time I saw them he was no longer a child.

And then they turned off the lights at the Liberace museum because of low attendance.  Liberace was known for several things besides his musical talent and excessive opulence was one of them.   

And then they turned out the lights and said good-night.  "Good night," she whispered softly, "Sweet dreams."
