SO LONG, LARRY STORCH...

You were funny as heck, shining most brightly in F Troop, as Fort Courage's Corporal Randolph Agarn, and Saturday morning's The Ghost Busters, as avid investigator Eddie Spencer (both with your good pal, Forrest Tucker).

The laughs didn't stop there, as you kept them rolling for Gilligan's Island; Get SmartS.O.B.; I Dream of Jeannie; Gomer Pyle; The Great Bank Robbery; Get Smart; Love American Style; and The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour, while sharing your varied voices with Groovie Goolies (as Drac, Ratso, Batso, et al); The Pink Panther; Tennessee Tuxedo; Treasure Island '73; Journey Back to Oz; and The Batman/Superman Hour (as the Joker, no less--ho, ha!).  

You also took some serious, artistic turns, as in Airport '75, The Alfred Hitchcock Hour, Kolchak: the Night Stalker; Playboy After Dark, Columbo and the pre-Predator classic, Without Warning

You were a likable and warm human being, Mr. Storch, and that came through in whatever part you played. That likability and warmth will prevail even beyond your departure, bringing joy to all who (re)watch and appreciate your wonderful work.
