The iconic Cunningham father in "Happy Days' passed away overnight, of heart failure, as well as lung cancer, aged 83.

Have just bought the first four seasons of Happy Days on DVD and was thinking how unusual it was for virtually the full cast (apart from Pat Morita) to still be alive this long after the show :(

the charlies angels show from the late 1970's into the 1980's character 'bosely' was named after tom as the actor who played bosely (david doyle) look very much like tom......i agree with that as i more than once got them mixed up
