I don't mean for this to be mean spirited at all. I am surprised though. Jack Klugman never really took care of himself, while Randall seemed to be the bill of great health..

Considering Jack's battle with throat cancer yes I'm very surprised he outlived Tony.

I guess when it comes down to it, Tony Randall is responsible for extending Jack's life. He was such a great friend.

Yeah Tony talked Jack into doing the Odd Couple reunion movie when he thought his career was over because of his throat surgery. I think that was really key to Jack's emotional recovery from cancer!

Yes- I also was surprised by that. Jack keeps on keepin' on.
