The Dean Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 RIP. Anyone remember the episode where The Beev needs a shave? I believe it was from the 80s reboot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChevyVanMiller Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 (edited) Man, that's sad. I followed him on social media in recent years and he really seemed like a nice guy. Here's a great clip of how the car that he bought with his Leave It To Beaver money made it's way back to him. RIP, Tony. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWgJ6RmMltA Edited July 26, 2022 by ChevyVanMiller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punching Bag Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 https://deadline.com/2022/07/tony-dow-alive-death-announced-in-error-1235078184/ Quote UPDATE, with statements from Dow’s son & management Tony Dow’s son and management team have confirmed that the actor is still alive, with his representatives attributing the earlier misinformation to the distraught state of the Leave It To Beaver actor’s wife. “This is a difficult time,” Dow’s son Christopher Dow said in a statement posted on the actor’s Facebook page. “Dad is at home, under hospice care, and in his last hours. My wife and I are by his side along with many friends that have visited. He has a fighting heart.” Dow is receiving hospice care at home, with his son Christopher Dow telling the media that his father is in “his last hours.” Not first time someone from Hollywood reported dead and now you need to look at articles times to see if it is a new update or repeated old news.

Bad Things Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Sad news. He was a huge part of an iconic show. We rewatched a few of the earlier seasons a couple years ago, and really enjoyed them. What a completely different era of television. God Bless you Wally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: passed away in 2013 I always thought Lumpy was looking for a MILF experience with Mrs. Cleaver. Mr. Dow's family got to at least say their goodbyes. My mother had multiple issues and then was found to have cancer being too weak to be operated on. She told them no medication and she passed away before I had a chance to say my goodbye. 2 hours ago, Doc said: He passed for real this time. RIP. Tony Dow, Wally Cleaver on 'Leave It to Beaver,' dies at 77 a day after death was prematurely announced. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/tony-dow-wally-cleaver-leave-beaver-dies-77-day-death-was-prematurely-rcna40202 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 A TV SF fan and remember seeing his name in credits on several TV shows and each time I would check to ensure it was not another person with same name. Babylon 5 and its sequel Crusade, DS9 (one) and Swamp Thing among others.
