One of my all time favorite shows ….Leave it to Beaver.
Post a coin between 1957, first show of Leave it to Beaver aired and 1963 when the last show aired. June, Ward, and Eddie Haskell have all passed leaving the Beaver, Jerry Mathers as the lone surviving main cast member. Tony will be missed. RIP 🌹

That very sad news
His wife 'believed' he was dead. Very sad.

I recall hearing that somewhere before!

One of my favorite shows too. I watch them almost every morning.
The Family Entertainment network is back to the beginning episodes when the kids were little.
It's just the best !
Roku has every episode free. One of the best station for old stuff but you have to sit through commercials just like when you were a kid. Only thing missing is yelling at someone to get up and adjust the horizontal hold.
R.IP., Wally........Mayfield's star athlete, the Beaver's big brother, Eddie's best buddy, Ward and June's first born, and........Mary Ellen Roger's first heart throb!!!!......
Oh, Well.......😪
Sounds like very difficult times for the family in either case.
I love that show as well and still occasionally watch reruns.
Yes, I know I’m a bit old and a little corny. ;-)

Hey, nwcoast.......I seldom watch T.V........but when I do......Leave It To Beaver!......it is one of the most well written T.V. shows of all time.....very funny...........I'm a bit old and a little corny too......in fact?......very corny......but.....just a bit old!🙄
The show is on Me-TV every morning. And, I'm always sure to watch it every morning.
Tony Dow in hospice.
In 1975, Jerry Mathers lived in the fraternity next door to mine. When he showed up on campus after military service you did a double take and then realized it was THE BEAV.
I met Beaver and Eddie in the early 90's when they were here working a 'home show'. I talked with them for quite a while. They were wearing Mayfield high letter sweaters and they were hilarious !
The inscription on this photo, it's quite hard to read, is "From one Beaver to another".....I love it !
One of my favorite all time shows too.
We all love the beaver😊
What's the real scoop here? I've been reading that he's still alive. His wife just thought he was dead. WHAT?!?! 😲
It reminds me of an old Mark Twain quote. I'm expecting Wally to issue a press release at any moment now..... Something along the lines of..... "Rumors of my death are greatly exaggerated." 😵
He's in hospice care and in very bad shape from what I've read.

As Tony Dow is still alive, can we change the title of this thread ?

Thanks, Perry......doesn't sound good.....
Echos of General Francisco Franco....
In any case, this extended exit for Tony Dow gives people a chance to send a few thoughts and memories his way.
As of a few minutes ago, Tony Dow is now really really REALLY dead.
I guess yesterday was a miscommunication of some sort.
RIP.
Now I have a craving to watch some Leave it to Beaver episodes, just to see Wally again. This thread is giving me a 'Dow jones'.
RIP Tony.
