You were beloved by millions and I send thoughts and sympathy to his son, Rob. The next realm will be a happier place with you there, though

The Dick Van Dyke Show was one of the classiest sitcoms ever. He is with Estelle now. Prayers for Rob who must be hurting.

passing away. It seems like evil people live for eternity. My condolences to Rob and the rest of Carl's family.
