I'm not sure why you'd use the term "tragic", seems he had an amazing life.

[@lindauribe6872]

I grew up with his show and loved the show 😍

[@jesusnodal8948]

That is a true television legend!!

[@lanazahn1614]

My mom, Norma Coffas Clinton, was a friend of Bob. Norma was a talented soprano at age 10 and because they lived near each other Bob used to accompany her on his piano in his home when she was a teen. They remained friends. My mom passed away in 2011. I found a letter from Bob had written when they both lived in Fla in their latter years.

Howdy Doody was so cute! 😊 I was in high school when Buffalo Bob Smith died and was so sad.

Oh, how I remember, the peanut gallery, Mr. Buster, to name a few.

Great documentary ... but, if you don't have a windscreen for your mic, put a piece of cloth over it, or a sock.

[@stevefranks1711]

Terrible, inaccurate title. What was tragic about his ending? We should all be so fortunate! The lousy title ruins this.
