Was saddened to hear of the passing of sitcom actor Frank
Aletter at the age of 83 on the 13th of May. He is most famous
for IT'S ABOUT TIME, but was also in BRINGING UP BUDDY,
THE CARA WILLIAMS SHOW, NANCY, and several episodes of
THE LUCY SHOW. He was, at one time, married to Lee Meriwether.
He also did a lot of Broadway.

Agree. He was a 60s sitcom mainstay. Although I've seen all of the Nancys quite recently and don't recall seeing him in the show.

He portrayed a character named TOM DAILY in the obscure NANCY series.
I'm unsure if it involved more than one episode. Not a household name, but
definitely a familiar TV face. I have five BRINGING UP BUDDY episodes, but sadly only one CARA WILLIAMS SHOW. I'd love to find more of each.
