Dating headcannons for our boy Larry from Puppet combo 👀🎄

Bruh…cause at this point you don't wanna fuck Larry you want Santa 😨🥲

Duh du na nuuuu! You caught -> grandpa having ass!

🌲 Larry would probably have a hard time understanding social cues and romantic gestures, making him come off as awkward, but his sincerity shines through. He may not know how to compliment you properly, but when he does, it’s in his own weird way—something like, “You don’t look dead today, that’s nice.”

🌲 Larry tries to be romantic but often misjudges what’s appropriate. He might give you gifts that come off as unsettling, like an old doll he found in the woods or a lock of hair, thinking it’s sweet.

🌲 Larry doesn’t quite understand the concept of “personal space” or what’s normal in a relationship. He might stand a little too close or stare for longer than necessary. Though, this behavior is his way of showing he cares, even if it’s a little unnerving…

🌲 If Larry becomes attached, he’s fiercely loyal. He’ll go out of his way to help you, but his methods are unorthodox. If you’re ever in trouble, he’s the type to handle the problem, but in his own macabre, Puppet Combo-esque way.

🌲 His sense of humor is offbeat, often revolving around morbidity and death, but if you share the same dark humor, you’ll find him hilarious. He might say something like, “At least if you kill me, I won’t be lonely in the afterlife.” A little grim, but he means well.

🌲 Beneath his creepy exterior, Larry has a soft spot for you. Occasionally, he’ll show rare moments of vulnerability, like admitting he worries about you or revealing a childhood fear. These glimpses of his more human side show that he’s not all doom and gloom.

🌲 Larry has a habit of visiting you at night while you sleep, though you never know it. He’ll quietly let himself in, sit at the edge of your bed, and just watch. He likes the idea of you being vulnerable, completely unaware of his presence. He never touches you, but the thought that he’s always there looms over you.

🌲 Larry has created a life-sized mannequin or doll that looks exactly like you. It wears your clothes, mimics your hairstyle, and sits at a dinner table set for two. The most disturbing part? He has entire conversations with it when you’re not around, whispering things like “I’ll make sure you never leave.”

🌲 Larry’s fascination with death takes a horrifying turn when he starts talking about how he’d like to “preserve” you forever. He brings up embalming techniques or mummification as if it’s a normal part of a relationship conversation. He’s convinced that when your time comes, you’ll both “stay together” in a more literal sense—no rot, no decay, just eternal beauty.

LOS ANGELES — Bill Daily, the comic sidekick to leading men on the sitcoms “I Dream of Jeannie” and “The Bob Newhart Show,” has died, a family spokesman said Saturday.

Daily died of natural causes in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on Tuesday, at his home where he had been living with his son, J. Patrick Daily, spokesman Steve Moyer told The Associated Press.

Daily was not a household name but he was a household face, familiar to many millions of baby-boomer viewers in the 1960s and ’70s from two of the era’s biggest shows.

He played Major Roger Healy in all five seasons of “I Dream of Jeannie” from 1965 to 1970. Healy was the astronaut partner to Larry Hagman’s Major Anthony Nelson as both men tried to contain the antics of Jeannie, the childlike blond bombshell who lived in a bottle played by Barbara Eden.

Eden said on Twitter Friday night that Daily was “Our favourite zany astronaut.”

“Billy was wonderful to work with,” Eden said. “He was a funny, sweet man that kept us all on our toes. I’m so thankful to have known and worked with that rascal.”

Just two years later he landed a very similar role and had an even longer run on “The Bob Newhart Show,” playing aviator Howard Borden behind Newhart’s psychologist Dr. Bob Hartley for 140 episodes between 1972 and 1978.

Newhart, now 89, said in a statement Saturday that he and Daily had been friends since both were trying to break into comedy in Chicago in the 1950s, and Daily was a clutch comedian that could make anything work on the sitcom.

“I called him our bullpen man. Whenever we were having trouble with a script on the show, we’d have Bill make an appearance,” Newhart said. “He was one of the most positive people I ever knew, and we’ll dearly miss him.”

— Bob Newhart (@BobNewhart) September 08, 2018

Daily saved scenes instead of stealing them like other sidekicks of the era. He specialized in support, upping the comic moments of his co-stars — his Newhart character was, fittingly, a co-pilot — with a goofy warmth.

Actor James Urbaniak called him the “king of affable vulnerability” on Twitter Friday.

Aw, Bill Daily. Such a ubiquitous presence on TV during my '60s-'70s childhood. And now that I think about it, one… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

— James Urbaniak (@JamesUrbaniak) September 08, 2018

But like all co-stars on long-running shows, he got occasional episodes of his own, including one where he stole the role of Jeannie’s master from Hagman.

Daily was born in Des Moines, Iowa, but raised in Chicago, which he always considered his hometown. He said he was always a class clown despite losing his father while still a child.

Before acting, he tried to make it in show business as a jazz bass player, playing in a combo called “Jack and the Beanstalks.” Appearing in variety shows drew him into standup comedy and then acting.

He landed one-off roles on the oddball shows of the early 1960s like “My Mother the Car” and “Bewitched,” which brought him to the attention of the creators of “I Dream of Jeannie.”

He said his work at first was derivative — and not very good.

“I was doing Bob Hope and Bing Crosby,” Daily said in a 2003 interview with the Archive of American Television. “I was terrible. I think I was funny, but I didn’t know what I was doing.”

//

After “Jeannie” he returned to guest-starring roles, including one on “The Mary Tyler Moore Show,” before his old friend Newhart came seeking a sidekick.

On “The Bob Newhart Show,” Daily’s Howard Borden was the neighbour across the hall who always popped in looking to borrow or mooch something, like Kramer on “Seinfeld” two decades later.

He said the writers and his co-stars made the part a breeze.

“I just think the scripts were just written so beautifully,” Daily said in the TV archive interview. “And Bob was a brilliant straight man, he’d just give you everything.”

Daily later appeared on game shows and in reunion specials for his two shows, and in later years hung out with his co-stars on the nostalgia convention circuit.

In his last well-known role, he played a psychiatrist on the cult hit alien-puppet sitcom “Alf” from 1987 to 1989.

Daily was married three times. His third wife, Becky Daily, died in 2010 after 17 years of marriage.

He adopted two children, daughter Kimberly and son J. Patrick Daily. He had been living for several years in New Mexico with his son and son’s wife Sharon.

At Bill Daily’s request no funeral is planned. He just wanted his loved ones to have a party, which is tentatively planned for next year, the family said.

It’s got a groove, it’s got a meaning…and it’s still a cultural phenomenon 40 years after its original release.  The iconic celebration of high school life in the 1950s, Grease is the way you’ll be feeling with a new 40th Anniversary Edition on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, DVD and Digital out now from Paramount Home Media Distribution.

Featuring an explosion of song and dance, as well as star-making performances from John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, Grease made an indelible impact on popular culture.  40 years later, the film remains an enduring favorite as legions of new fans discover the memorable moments, sensational soundtrack and classic love story.  Boasting unforgettable songs including “Greased Lightnin,” “Look At Me, I’m Sandra Dee,” “Summer Nights,” “Hopelessly Devoted To You,” “Beauty School Drop Out” and, of course, “Grease,” the film is a timeless feel-good celebration.

This is HOT

It’s got a groove, it’s got a meaning…and it’s still a cultural phenomenon 40 years after its original release.  The iconic celebration of high school life in the 1950s, Grease is the way you’ll be feeling with a new 40th Anniversary Edition on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, DVD and Digital out now from Paramount Home Media Distribution.

Featuring an explosion of song and dance, as well as star-making performances from John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, Grease made an indelible impact on popular culture.  40 years later, the film remains an enduring favorite as legions of new fans discover the memorable moments, sensational soundtrack and classic love story.  Boasting unforgettable songs including “Greased Lightnin,” “Look At Me, I’m Sandra Dee,” “Summer Nights,” “Hopelessly Devoted To You,” “Beauty School Drop Out” and, of course, “Grease,” the film is a timeless feel-good celebration.

WATCH:

Paramount worked with director Randal Kleiser to restore Grease to its original vibrancy with the highest quality sound, picture resolution and color.  The original negative was scanned and received extensive clean up and color correction using previously unavailable digital restoration tools such as high dynamic range technology.  In addition, the audio was enhanced from a six-track mix created for an original 70mm release, giving the music more clarity.  The resulting picture and sound create an exceptional home viewing experience.

The Grease 40th Anniversary Edition 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Combo Packs include the fully restored version of the film plus an all-new, in-depth exploration of the little-known origins of what would become a Broadway play and then a feature film and worldwide phenomenon.  “Grease: A Chicago Story” features new interviews with writer Jim Jacobs and original cast members of the Chicago show.  In addition, the discs include the original song the title sequence was animated to and an alternate ending salvaged from the original black & white 16mm work print discovered by director Randal Kleiser.

12/5/17 Tues

Today at 9:30am I took the bus to campus and met a friend/collegue A from G at Espresso Royale on State St. We talked about the piercing world and opportunities in apprenticeship/what it’s like being a piercer. I most definitely overstepped boundaries while being entirely aware of it by asking her questions about my employment that she isn’t allowed to tell me/doesn’t know the answers to. I’ve just been really fucking stressed lately to the point where even though I know how unprofessional/inappropriate things are, I don’t give a fuck and do them anyway. But I always make a point to say something like, “I’m sorry, I hope I’m not overstepping and if I am, I’m so sorry and understand we can’t discuss it, but I’m just wondering if blah blah blah” and then they respect the fact that I was already aware it wasn’t right and neither of us feel shame about it. After that Amanda walked me through the Diag, willing to walk me into the SSW to help me get to the ECC for an Art in Social Work Symposium. Rachel showed up which I wasn’t expecting. She came a little late, sat down, saw me, mouthed “hi’ and smiled. Then for the first half of the presentation, I was trying to take notes and concentrate while saying to myself repeatedly, “Don’t let Rachel make you feel nervous. She’s accepting and you’re here for you.” That was why I chose to sit at a front table by myself. I wasn’t sure how big the crowd would be (it was relatively big, but lots of people filtered out early due to classes). I stayed the whole time and found the discussion boring. I found the content extremely general and vague and really geared toward macro work - community outreach and organization. I didn’t know the event was going to be a panel for questions. I knew I had questions I wanted to ask, but was scared in front of all the students. I’m not a student so I felt even more uncomfortable like I wasn’t sure if I was even allowed to be there attending this. Since the entire 2 hour symposium was centered around incorporating the arts into social work, I refused to not speak. I raised my hand and mentioned being a deferred student on medical leave while also using the next year to weigh whether or not I want to do SW versus Art Therapy. I told them I got into a variety of AT schools and MSW schools for this fall last year and that I’ve been offered another opportunity in Portland for an AT Masters. Immediately Paula started shaking her head, gestured, and said the word, “Limited.” After providing this context, my first question was their thoughts on SW versus AT as a career path. Their answers were general and things I already knew that didn’t help me at all. They were opposed to AT as a career pathway. I talked about my passions and why I chose SW, feeling it encompasses everything and provides the opportunity that I can really do all the things I want- be a professor, be a therapist, work with any population (i.e. kids), publish books. The panel included 4 individuals: Another woman named Amanda who put this whole thing together (idk who she is), a first-year student with music background who self-designed her internship, her field supervisor at her field location named Paula, and Larry Gant- a professor in both the School of Art & Design, as well as SSW - a professor I had researched and referenced in my admissions essay, discussing my interest in taking courses from him given my career goals. People are right - he is dry and boring communicatively, but I have the utmost respect for him and plan to reach out to him in detail as soon as I can. I plan to reach out to the intern too (Sunny) and Paula.  The most concrete take-away I got from the symposium is the knowledge that I can create my own internship by writing proposals, researching field placements, and then talking with my field supervisor about designing my own program. This is what I want to do. I also received the empowering message: “Build your own career. You can do anything you want.” Paula spoke in opposition towards AT when explaining what therapy sessions as an AT would be vs. as a therapist with an MSW. She said things like, “Instead of working in a room with child and parents, you’re sitting with a child using puppets to talk about what happened. Instead of talking to client about issues they’re dealing with, you’re sitting on the floor painting those issues they’re dealing with.” I want to talk with her more about this because as a counselor/art therapist, I’ve always been under the impression you DO have counseling skills with the extra advantage of INCORPORATING the arts. At the same time, I felt a bit discouraged because I actually really like the prospect of that career and the examples she was providing, even though her point was that they’re limited. After the Symposium, I was looking down at the Atrium from above. It was so crowded down there, I’m SURE absolutely maxed out with all the people I know in the SSW. I was scared of seeing Max and Savannah. The first person I saw when I looked down was Erin. Then I looked up and saw Autumn right next to me. I started talking to her, but again (JUST LIKE YESTERDAY AT THE BUS STOP) couldn’t even hear her. I was so anxious and so stressed and so scared and nervous that I just wasn’t even listening, while trying to also listen and be a good fucking friend, jesus christ, I’m terrible. I texted Erin telling her to look up (even though I was in the bathroom- which was stupid. Why would I not wait till after I came back out to the window?) She said she didn’t see me (obviously). Then when I got back out there I texted her again saying “Look up.” I saw her look up and shrug her shoulders like “wtf” and then turn around and see me at the window. She smiled and waved and texted me. I stood there texting her back for a couple seconds. Then I told her to wave again and went on my way. Sunny came out of the ECC and I took that as an opportunity to ask for her contact info even though at the time I didn’t really care for it (now I’m glad I did it because I think she actually can offer some good information to me regarding this self-designed field program), but it was more out of anxiety, I stopped her, asked her for her contact info, so that if people I know did see me, they’d see I was busy/occupied/and aka confident.  She gave me her email and I started trying to text it to myself and accidentally started texting it to Savannah. I flipped the hell out saying “Oops, sorry, wait, I tried to text it to myself and ended up almost sending it to someone I absolutely cannot send things to” and she laughed. For the first time I almost felt above all this shit. Then I utilized this as an opportunity to walk out of the SSW with someone. We were talking and she asked if I live in A2 and I said Ypsi and as we walked through that doorway past OSS and into the upper commons, she told me she likes Ypsi better because it has better coffee shops. I sorta did a combo of a scoff and a laugh. I have no idea why I thought it was so funny? ANXIETY. I was passing a crowd of people and I wanted them to see that I was talking to someone, involved, confident, comfortable, and thriving. Not: Slouched over, nervous, weird, awkward, a failure, misplaced, or visibly uncomfortable). After that I thanked her for putting on the event and said it was nice to meet her, and then I veered right and sat down on the cement bench where Rachel and I had sat yesterday, but closer to the entrance so that people I knew COULD see me if they were walking in and out of the building. But I looked down at my phone and started playing on it in fear they would see me. This is my life. This is social anxiety disorder. At that point I got an incoming email from Joy reaching out to see how I am doing and inviting me to Hungerwise regardless of whether or not I’m all caught up. I flipped my phone horizontally and began writing a response, thanking her for her concern, saying I’m sorry I missed 3 weeks in a row, I’ve been immensely depressed and struggling, but would like to come tomorrow etc etc, but question whether I should just take the next class instead, but asked if I had to re-pay for it, blah blah blah. At that point, I look up, and there’s Savannah. Walking out of the building towards Espresso Royale with a short and petite dark haired person- it may have been Monte. It was then when I realized (and subsequently got EXTREMELY depressed) that Savannah was moving on. Making other friends and highly immersed in a program that I’m no longer a part of, as much as I still try to be. Like this was her life- coffee between classes like her and I used to do, but with new friends. Every right (obvs.) to make new friends, I want her to thrive and be happy. Just something about seeing that was so hard for me. And then I remembered that I’m an overwhelming friend. That’s what I’ve been told. Max specifically said, “Many people have shared with them that I am overwhelming to be friends with.” My depression from all of this is that kind that makes you feel frozen. Aside from the fact that it’s also winter- it just makes you feel like dead ice. After that Espresso thing, I hopped up, and walked quickly to the bus. At the bus stop I looked back down the street and saw her and the Monte girl rushing back into the SSW. It was the green coat. They were far away. I was sad. I wondered if she could see me. I wondered if she saw me sitting there at the SSW. I wonder if she can see how I carry myself, how sad I am, and whether or not this also makes her feel sad. Or if she’s moving on into the wind leaving me behind. After that I drove to therapy and tried to explain to Amy all of what happened on campus yesterday and today- all the stuff about Savannah and running into her 3 times and the anxiety and how sore my body is. How I cry everywhere I go, how I feel frozen and depressed. How I feel like nothing and have lost my authentic self, worried all I am is a byproduct of my new diagnoses. That my whole life, everything I’ve ever said or done, has been a product of my PTSD and codependency. Talked about Rachel. Talked about the CoDA thing. I want to talk to her about the idea Rachel gave me of passing on control to a higher power. A higher power being a god/deity, religion, nature, art, the group itself, or the spiritual universe.  I also have the topic of rituals on my mind from the Fakir Intensives conversation I had with Amanda this morning. A psychologist once tried to diagnose me as a fucking sadist. Did you know in the piercing world, rituals for the very reason I’m into piercing, exist as healing experiences to let go of things no longer wanted by being sensually put through pain/physical support, not as kink and not as weirdo-ville, but as an individual request for personal freedom. Peace out, 3:50am.

LOS ANGELES — Bill Daily, the comic sidekick to leading men on the sitcoms “I Dream of Jeannie” and “The Bob Newhart Show,” has died, a family spokesman said Saturday.

Daily died of natural causes in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on Tuesday, at his home where he had been living with his son, J. Patrick Daily, spokesman Steve Moyer told The Associated Press.

Daily was not a household name but he was a household face, familiar to many millions of baby-boomer viewers in the 1960s and ’70s from two of the era’s biggest shows.

He played Major Roger Healy in all five seasons of “I Dream of Jeannie” from 1965 to 1970. Healy was the astronaut partner to Larry Hagman’s Major Anthony Nelson as both men tried to contain the antics of Jeannie, the childlike blond bombshell who lived in a bottle played by Barbara Eden.

Eden said on Twitter Friday night that Daily was “Our favourite zany astronaut.”

“Billy was wonderful to work with,” Eden said. “He was a funny, sweet man that kept us all on our toes. I’m so thankful to have known and worked with that rascal.”

Just two years later he landed a very similar role and had an even longer run on “The Bob Newhart Show,” playing aviator Howard Borden behind Newhart’s psychologist Dr. Bob Hartley for 140 episodes between 1972 and 1978.

Newhart, now 89, said in a statement Saturday that he and Daily had been friends since both were trying to break into comedy in Chicago in the 1950s, and Daily was a clutch comedian that could make anything work on the sitcom.

“I called him our bullpen man. Whenever we were having trouble with a script on the show, we’d have Bill make an appearance,” Newhart said. “He was one of the most positive people I ever knew, and we’ll dearly miss him.”

Daily saved scenes instead of stealing them like other sidekicks of the era. He specialized in support, upping the comic moments of his co-stars — his Newhart character was, fittingly, a co-pilot — with a goofy warmth.

Actor James Urbaniak called him the “king of affable vulnerability” on Twitter Friday.

— James Urbaniak (@JamesUrbaniak) September 08, 2018

But like all co-stars on long-running shows, he got occasional episodes of his own, including one where he stole the role of Jeannie’s master from Hagman.

Daily was born in Des Moines, Iowa, but raised in Chicago, which he always considered his hometown. He said he was always a class clown despite losing his father while still a child.

Before acting, he tried to make it in show business as a jazz bass player, playing in a combo called “Jack and the Beanstalks.” Appearing in variety shows drew him into standup comedy and then acting.

He landed one-off roles on the oddball shows of the early 1960s like “My Mother the Car” and “Bewitched,” which brought him to the attention of the creators of ��I Dream of Jeannie.”

He said his work at first was derivative — and not very good.

“I was doing Bob Hope and Bing Crosby,” Daily said in a 2003 interview with the Archive of American Television. “I was terrible. I think I was funny, but I didn’t know what I was doing.”

//

After “Jeannie” he returned to guest-starring roles, including one on “The Mary Tyler Moore Show,” before his old friend Newhart came seeking a sidekick.

On “The Bob Newhart Show,” Daily’s Howard Borden was the neighbour across the hall who always popped in looking to borrow or mooch something, like Kramer on “Seinfeld” two decades later.

He said the writers and his co-stars made the part a breeze.

“I just think the scripts were just written so beautifully,” Daily said in the TV archive interview. “And Bob was a brilliant straight man, he’d just give you everything.”

Daily later appeared on game shows and in reunion specials for his two shows, and in later years hung out with his co-stars on the nostalgia convention circuit.

In his last well-known role, he played a psychiatrist on the cult hit alien-puppet sitcom “Alf” from 1987 to 1989.

Daily was married three times. His third wife, Becky Daily, died in 2010 after 17 years of marriage.

He adopted two children, daughter Kimberly and son J. Patrick Daily. He had been living for several years in New Mexico with his son and son’s wife Sharon.

At Bill Daily’s request no funeral is planned. He just wanted his loved ones to have a party, which is tentatively planned for next year, the family said.

Daily saved scenes instead of stealing them like other sidekicks of the era. He specialized in support, upping the comic moments of his co-stars — his Newhart character was, fittingly, a co-pilot — with a goofy warmth.

Actor James Urbaniak called him the “king of affable vulnerability” on Twitter Friday.

But like all co-stars on long-running shows, he got occasional episodes of his own, including one where he stole the role of Jeannie’s master from Hagman.

Daily was born in Des Moines, Iowa, but raised in Chicago, which he always considered his hometown. He said he was always a class clown despite losing his father while still a child.

Before acting, he tried to make it in show business as a jazz bass player, playing in a combo called “Jack and the Beanstalks.” Appearing in variety shows drew him into standup comedy and then acting.

He landed one-off roles on the oddball shows of the early 1960s like “My Mother the Car” and “Bewitched,” which brought him to the attention of the creators of “I Dream of Jeannie.”

He said his work at first was derivative — and not very good.

“I was doing Bob Hope and Bing Crosby,” Daily said in a 2003 interview with the Archive of American Television. “I was terrible. I think I was funny, but I didn’t know what I was doing.”

After “Jeannie” he returned to guest-starring roles, including one on “The Mary Tyler Moore Show,” before his old friend Newhart came seeking a sidekick.

On “The Bob Newhart Show,” Daily’s Howard Borden was the neighbour across the hall who always popped in looking to borrow or mooch something, like Kramer on “Seinfeld” two decades later.

He said the writers and his co-stars made the part a breeze.

“I just think the scripts were just written so beautifully,” Daily said in the TV archive interview. “And Bob was a brilliant straight man, he’d just give you everything.”

Daily later appeared on game shows and in reunion specials for his two shows, and in later years hung out with his co-stars on the nostalgia convention circuit.

In his last well-known role, he played a psychiatrist on the cult hit alien-puppet sitcom “Alf” from 1987 to 1989.

Daily was married three times. His third wife, Becky Daily, died in 2010 after 17 years of marriage.

He adopted two children, daughter Kimberly and son J. Patrick Daily. He had been living for several years in New Mexico with his son and son’s wife Sharon.

At Bill Daily’s request no funeral is planned. He just wanted his loved ones to have a party, which is tentatively planned for next year, the family said.

LOS ANGELES — Bill Daily, the comic sidekick to leading men on the sitcoms “I Dream of Jeannie” and “The Bob Newhart Show,” has died, a family spokesman said Saturday.

Daily died of natural causes in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on Tuesday, at his home where he had been living with his son, J. Patrick Daily, spokesman Steve Moyer told The Associated Press.

Daily was not a household name but he was a household face, familiar to many millions of baby-boomer viewers in the 1960s and ’70s from two of the era’s biggest shows.

He played Major Roger Healy in all five seasons of “I Dream of Jeannie” from 1965 to 1970. Healy was the astronaut partner to Larry Hagman’s Major Anthony Nelson as both men tried to contain the antics of Jeannie, the childlike blond bombshell who lived in a bottle played by Barbara Eden.

Eden said on Twitter Friday night that Daily was “Our favourite zany astronaut.”

“Billy was wonderful to work with,” Eden said. “He was a funny, sweet man that kept us all on our toes. I’m so thankful to have known and worked with that rascal.”

Just two years later he landed a very similar role and had an even longer run on “The Bob Newhart Show,” playing aviator Howard Borden behind Newhart’s psychologist Dr. Bob Hartley for 140 episodes between 1972 and 1978.

Newhart, now 89, said in a statement Saturday that he and Daily had been friends since both were trying to break into comedy in Chicago in the 1950s, and Daily was a clutch comedian that could make anything work on the sitcom.

“I called him our bullpen man. Whenever we were having trouble with a script on the show, we’d have Bill make an appearance,” Newhart said. “He was one of the most positive people I ever knew, and we’ll dearly miss him.”
