Eddie Albert Dies at 99 - Page 2 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

He was born before his mother got married, so she changed his birth certificate to reflect that he was born after she married.

99 is a good, full life.

That's what I thought. That would make him 97 when he died.

Anyway, he was a fine actor and a great human being. RIP.

Hell - when you get that old, your birth certificate is carved on stone tablets anyways!

His birthday was April 22, same as my mom's. Anyway, the birth certificate story from TJ is interesting.

Yeah, celebs change their year of birth frequently.
For instance, Nancy Reagan was born in either 1921 or 1923, depending on what you read. It's probably 1921, but who knows?
