vote and comment

I voted for Bill Rafferty because he was younger than the other two which made his death more shocking to me.

wow, that really suprises me Marvo301,i mean no offense to Mr. Rafferty heck,i think he should have had more recognition just as much as you do but i though that you would have voted for Dick Clark or Richard Dawson since there were more popular. but then again to each his/her own.

Well Dick Clark's death wasn't surprising at all since he was in poor health ever since he had his stroke. And Richard Dawson was getting up there in age so it wasn't that shocking that he would pass away either. But Bill Rafferty's death came out of the blue. He was younger than the other two and had no publically known health issues.

well that is true, since his C.O.D (Cause of Death) has not yet been given!

Definitely Bill Rafferty.
#1 his death came out of the blue, unlike Clark whose health hasn't been the same since suffering a stroke awhile back. And Dawson was bound to get up there in age.
#2 when I saw him on GSN Live not too long ago he seemed fine on there.

i think Clark had suffered the stroke in 2004, correct?

i heard that Dawson had suffered a stroke 3 or 4 years ago which affected his memory just a little bit. also, i think what affected him to die as well is his weight gain because if you seen his long interview with Emmytvlegends.org you could see his neck turning into globs and globs of fat cells and obviously he was old (no offense BTW), so those are my predictions but what do you think about this megamanj2004?

Richard Dawson died from esophageal cancer

I know that already Zoneboy, i'm just pointing out the causes that made him die. also i was going to mention that he smoked a lot but thank the gods that his daughter (for which her name is Shannon Nicole BTW) stopped him from doing that.

If you knew it then you should have acknowledged it before trying to come up with more causes for his death. His own family has stated the cause and I haven't found any links that mention any other health issues including a stroke. If you or anyone else can find one then please share it.

listen dude i'm sorry ok, i didn't mean to piss you off and all that but maybe i should have hust said straight and flat out Esophageal cancer and besides i don't want to get in trouble here on these boards especially when it comes to game shows but at least i predicted that year when Dick Clark suffered that terrible stroke right?


anyway just to give you my sincere apology to you here's the four part of the last anf final interview with the "kissing bandit" himself before his death (courtesy of Archive of American Television):http://www.emmytvlegends.org/interviews/people/richard-dawson#

enjoy!

I didn't know that Bill Rafferty died until I read this thread and he got my vote and I am curious as to what caused his death because he was the youngest of the 3.

ohh ok, i'm sorry if i offended you in anyway, shape , or form with that question i though that name to me sounded familiar that's all!

Rafferty: Youngest of the group, and unexpected. Clark has been ill for years. Dawson didn't look good in his last appearances.

i agree Rafferty was the moost unexcepecting of the group Clark wasn't getting any healthier and i think Dawson ate to much fatty foods.


do you agree?
