Mr. Cunningham (Tom Bosley) passed away this week. He was 83 years old. Most of you will remember Tom from Happy Days where he portrayed Howard Cunningham - the patriarch of the Cunningham Family. But did you know that he had an extensive career before that show. He originated the title role of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway musical Fiorello!, earning the 1960 Tony Award for Best Performance by a Featured Actor in a Musical. He was also in Love with a Proper Stranger, Yours, Mine and Ours and then later on after Happy Days he was on Murder She Wrote and Father Dowling Mysteries. He was also a voice actor in many animated series. He will be sorely missed.
