Art Linkletter, dies Age 97
Art Linkletter, the genial host who parlayed his talent for the ad-libbed interview into two of television’s longest-running shows, “People Are Funny” and “House Party,” in the 1950s and 1960s, died on Wednesday at his home in the Bel Air section of Los Angeles. He was 97. The death was confirmed by Art Hershey, a son-in-law.

We wish to offer our most sincere and heartfelt condolences to the immediate family, associates and many friends of ART LINKLETTER upon his departure from the scene ...
Many are unaware that he was born in Canada and was a foundling who as he grew decided he was going to make something of himself which over time he most assuredly did ...
There are some you wish would live to 100+, like the Queen Mother, George Burns and Bob Hope ...
Art deserved to be one of those few, also ...
He had many important things to say and, for those of us who appreciated him, we were listening ...
Thanks Art.
