Conrad looks great for a man who recently turned 87!

The weird thing is that Conrad Bain on Diff'rent Strokes, perhaps looked significantly older than his chronological age at the time (he was in his late 40s early 50s when DS started, yet easily looked like he could be at least in his late 60s). Patrick Stewart sort has that effect to, where when he was on Star Trek, he looked a lot older than his actual age, but somehow, someway, he manged to "stop" aging.

He definitely looks the same now, because he died in 2013.

He was born in 1923, so actually he was 55 when DS started. But yes, he definitely looked older.

Amazing what a difference how a 55 year old person now in 2015 is more health conscious and looks so much different than a 55 year old from decades ago.
