SO LONG, FRANK B. JOHNSON...


Your cartoons were a sheer magic to children and adults alike: always innovative, personable and doggone funny, Mr. Johnson.


As such, your comic-book-character contributions are nothing short of head-spinning: Dudley Do-Right; Beetle Bailey; Huckleberry Hound; Underdog; Yogi Bear; Hi and Lois; Rock and Rollo; The Flintstones; the Jetsons; Li'l Genius; Li'l Tomboy, Li'l Rascal Twins; Double Trouble; Beany; Mutt and Jeff, Pee Wee Harris; and of course, those cute and congenial characters of Bringing Up Father and Boner's Ark.


There's no telling how many smiles you sparked, but no doubt it was many. May you now share in the same joy that you brought so many others, gracing dear Heaven as one of the greatest of the endearing greats.
