I found this on another Dennis website and pretty much verifies what has already been said here.....
Prophetically and by strange coincidence in episode 89 entitled: "Where There's a Will", which aired February 11th, 1962, the story dealt with Mr. Wilson making out a will and explaining that Dennis would inherit his gold watch when he dies. Sadly, he died on February 17th, 1962, just 55 years-old --five days after his birthday and 6 days after the episode aired. How strange is that? His last appearance in the series was Season 3, Episode 100: "The Man Next Door"

"Where there is a will" was on Antenna the other day. It was a funny ep. but sad watching it knowing Joe kearns wasn't going to be alive much longer! What was the cause of his death?

Kearns, who never married or had any children, died of a cerebral hemorrhage during the third season of Dennis the Menace at the age of 55. He died on February 17, 1962, five days after having turned 55. There was talk of the liquid diet he was on as a possible cause...

Wow. 55 is so young! I wonder if he wasn't feeling well for a while before this happened. Such a shame if it was caused by a fad diet! Maybe he had high blood pressure. He might have not been feeling well, having headaches for a while and just not saying anything or being in denial! Such a shame!

Very sad for the Dennis the Menace cast . Must have been shocking. Esp. for Jay North . Being a little boy, he was probably really upset and confused. Like losing a Grandfather!
