Bob Denver. Just thinking of the sacrifice he was willing to make, putting himself last on the credits to get Dawn and Russel in the credits.

Allan Hale. What a guy. He was so nice and was always willing to stand and talk to you no matter who you were.

Russel Johnson. Had a son that contracted AIDs, but did as a Father should and stood at his side till the end.

Jim Backus. This man had a solid belief that comedy was truly the best medicine.

Natalie Shafer. A woman so unique and with a natural class about her. She could have told people she was the Queen of England, and if they didn't know better, they would have believed her.

Such a wonderful family they were to each other. They are sorely missed.

Dawn Wells. A wonderful girl not unlike the character she played on GI, who gave us a behind the scenes look at the castaways, and continues to remain active. We love you Dawn.

Tina Louis. She hated the show and blamed it for ruining her career, and it took her most of a lifetime to really appreciate a TV show that has been so popular and remains unique. It's great to see that she finally came around.
