    Absolutely Rick, The Waltons were a staple in our home, every Thursday night. Literally a part of our lives. What a loss. My grandchildren borrowed my Waltons DVD set, and they love the Waltons as well.

    I guess it's appropriate to say " Good night John Boy". Couldn't do this show today....those values no longer exist to many.

    Great show with values, glad to see I'm not the only one with a Waltons DVD set. Hope he went with a glass of the recipe in his hand.
    Vinyl, the final frontier...

    Avantgarde horns, 300b tubes, thats the kinda crap I want... :D

    There's a saying out there that death to celebrities comes in threes.This week Shirley Temple Black, Sid Ceasar and now Ralph Waite. Personally I never liked the Waltons,way to hokey for me but he was a great character actor and did many tv series and movie rolls. The little girl who hepled bring out the best in the depression, the greatest sketch comic who hired the best writers of the time like Woody Allen,Mel Brooks,Carl Riner and like I said before a terrific character actor in Ralph Waite. To all R.I.P.
