Early this morning talk show host,sometimes singer,game show producer
(Wheel Of Fortune,Jeopardy!) and business tycoon,Merv Griffin has passed away only a month and 6 days after turning 82.
In an ironic co-incidence,exactly 1 year to the week that Mike Douglas passed away in 2006. (Mike Douglas died on his birthday August 11th at age 81.)
Merv's long lasting talk show ran until the early 1980s and while I wasn't a regular viewer,I did see his show now and then. I'm sure most of you here know more of his show than I.
He lived a great life and so should he rest in peace.
