Parrothead Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I was actually surprised that he hadn't died long ago. He was already up there when he was playing Col. Potter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MariannNOVA Posted December 7, 2011 Author Share Posted December 7, 2011 That's what I was thinking..."wasn't he old then?" I thought he was old when I was 4 y/o -- I think he was one of those actors who just always looked old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenmom5 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 (edited) I was actually surprised that he hadn't died long ago. He was already up there when he was playing Col. Potter. He was 96. He was just gray. He would have been about 60 when he started playing Col Potter. I guess because my husband is older than that, I don't think of 60 as old. My father started going gray at 25 -and before he died, he had people frequently thinking he was a senior citizen. He was 45.
