Awwwww, fond memories of a very nice man and good actor. Brought a lot of smiles to me and I loved that show so much.

RIP Goober

It's always sad to hear of the passing of someone like George Lindsey - we grew up watching and enjoying performances by him and other talented actors, many that we have lost in recent years. The stars of today just aren't the same to me. Perhaps the shows just aren't as entertaining. There are very few current television shows I find worth watching.

Rest In Peace -

George had a chain of eating spots,,, the buildings were VERY well built,,, he was very much commited to a clean well maintained, with lots of landscaping buildings. I once shot a story about they way they did things. He was part of the feature,, Such a nice genuine person! I have shot some real phonies, but he was not one!

"Judy-Judy-Judy" Who could forget his Cary Grant impersonation? Such a wonderful clean-funny-wholesome show. Loved all the characters---
