I can't think of any more on sitcoms but Charlie on Charlies Angels and Robin on Magnum PI were never seen. We were supposed to see Pegs mom on married with children but the person who was supposed to play her died the day they were supposed to film the show. I think the gooch was seen on different strokes once. It was way into the last season (when it went to ABC) and Sam was dealing with the bully that Arnold dealt with before. The running joke the whole show was...he is still there? Actually it was a pretty lame episode but lots of those last ones were. I only know because NAN ran the show when they had the different strokes marathon last winter.

i thought of another, Chris's Mother, from Kenan and Kel

Peg's mom was heard, but not seen. The character whose original actor died was Uncle Otto, who was to be played by the obese drag queen Divine (uncharacteristically playing a male role), who died of a heart attack on March 7, 1988. The role was filled by another (much thinner) actor.

This was Lorenzo Music, who did many character voices including Garfield the cat and Vince the crashtest dummy.
