Very cool. He was also the star of a movie last year in which a song I wrote was going to be used, but they cut the scene and therefore the song. So Ed will always have a place in my heart. A melancholy, frustrating place.
Shouldn’t that be “lit up?”
Honorable mentions to science teacher John Gabriel, and secretaries Kit Smythe, and Nancy McCarthy, the three cast members from the unaired (for 30 years) pilot, who all seem to still be kickin’.
Two years older is George Schultz who first Secretary of Labor and later Secretary of the Treasury in the Nixon administration. Two members of Johnson’s cabinet are still alive but both are younger than Schultz.
Whitey Ford, still alive at 89.
I was surprised recently to see Imelda Marcos on birthday lists: 89. Old Ferdinand died almost 30 years ago. Looks like she might hang on as an embarrassing reminder like Soong Mei-ling (Madame Chiang Kai-shek) who lasted until 105.
Every time I see a documentary narrated by David Attenborough I think, “Aw, this must be the last one he made before he died.” One day I’ll be right, but it wasn’t today. Or maybe it was, now that I think about it. Anyway, he’s still marveling at nature.
Gloria Henry, the mom from the TV show “Dennis the Menace” is still alive at 95.
Susan Hampshire. I remember having a crush on her when I was about seven. The only thing I recall seeing her in was the Disney movie about the cat and haven’t seen anything else she did since but I still remembered her name. She’s 81.
E.T.A. And working fairly recently.
This is nature at its most vulnerable.
Cat movie; are you sure you aren’t thinking of Hayley Mills?
maybe the shoes helped her live so long
Paul Newman died in 2008. Who knew?

Boy George, I would have assumed he was dead, but nope, still alive.
Topol.
Wow, I thought I knew all the Disney cat movies, but never heard of that one.
Patrick McGoohan in a Disney movie? That must have been a trip.
Nope. Susan Hampshire was the Scottish lady with the loom in The Three Lives of Thomasina. Patrick McGoohan was the veterinarian father of the heroine, played by Karen Dotrice, the little girl who was Jane Banks in Mary Poppins.
All the wee bairns were afraid of Susan, 'cause they thought she was a witch.
I must have seen that movie at least five times in one week when I was in fourth grade.
EDIT: Damn, ninja’d again! :mad:
Checked on Anna Chennault. Turns out she died in march of this year. As far as I’m concerned she should have been tried for treason as American soldiers died because of what she did.
She was in the 1966 Time Tunnel pilot as a passenger on the Titanic. Her character was going to New York for an operation to remove a brain tumor. For me, it was love at first sight. :o
