I remember once Ron Howard did one of those Celebrity Secrets bits on Conan O'Brien and said: "I once saw Tom Bosley kill a man for using Hefty brand garbage bags. He then used a Glad trash bag to dispose of the body. I respect a man who believes in the product he endorses!" :lol: :lol: :lol:

Very sad news. Like many here, I grew up watching Happy Days.
Being that it is Tuesday night, I will watch a couple of classic episodes to honor Mr. Bosley.

Goodnight, Mr. C -- say hi to "Arnold" when you meet him up there in that great Hardware Store In The Sky!;)

Talk about an actor who is forever linked to a specific role. Tom Bosley really struck a chord with several generations of Americans back in the 70's and 80's and I'm sure his own personality shone through in the role of Arthur Cunningham.

As a Midwesterner, I remember him fondly when he showed up to add some commentary to the occasional Chicago Cubs baseball game. He always seemed like a great and humble guy.
