Goldenblue Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 Bob Denver, whose television roles as Gilligan, the wacky first mate in "Gilligan's Island," and Maynard G. Krebs, the beatnik with a bongo in "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis," were first hits, then cult classics, died on Friday in Winston-Salem, N.C. He was 70. R.I.P Bob. You were and always shall be a cult hero. Thank you for the laughs, the memories and the special moments you brought into our lives. Condolences to his family.

VickiPS Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 SKIP-PERRRR! What a shame: 70 isn't old. Another big chunk of my youth gone. At least I can still remember the words of the Gilligan's Island theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
