R.I.P. Rosco...you brought a lot of joy to people & that's a life well lived.

The Dukes will be on CMT in 2 hrs.  I wonder if there will be a small tribute?

[Mike DC]

  
He's gone.  

He lived a great long life with a lot of friends & family.  




. . . and somewhere up there, Boss & Roscoe are back together again.  

At least Uncle Jesse is there to keep an eye on them.  

[JB400]

Well, they mentioned his passing.  Watching the Dukes feels different today.  He'll definitely be missed.

Who else but James Best could have made loosing to the Duke boys seem reasonable.

I didn't know JR Cash ever did this one.

From a boyhood, a TV character to a manhood, a revered actor I  can proudly say I met Jimmy on 5 or more occasions.  He was joyful, zestful man eager to talk, or sign your item.  He had devoted love to our K9 friends, and always ready to "Rosco" it up for "us".  Did you know he was an artist? Can you belive he would know who I was when I went to see him the last two times?  His wife was on Dukes in one episode, he was in two Twighlight  Zones, and more than 30 movies. I'm not ashamed to say I shed a tear on knowing he was gone. God, if you could hear him doing Jimmy Stewart, or how he got booze in a Hotel claiming to be Mr Stewart. Heck, my Charger is in a video he made! Never again will such a man be respected and loved as he, to me. RIP James, much love Dorothy (his wife) MPJ

He was also in a few episodes of Bonanza. Denver Pyle was in a bunch of Bonanzas.
