95. Wow. Talk about a long, lively and prosperous life. I loved the series. Thank you and rest in peace, Grampa Munster.

Damn man, thats sad. He was great in Munsters, and in Gremlins 2.

I wish I had known about that restraunt, I would have definitely checked it out.

I wonder how many of the other "Munsters" cast members are still around...if Lewis, who played the oldest of the bunch (not sure if he was actually older than the rest though) just passed on recently, I'm curious to how many of the others are still alive.

In any event, I can't call myself a huge fan of The Munsters or anything like that, but for a cheesy, harmless way to whittle away a half hour, I enjoyed watching it from time to time. I'm sure Nick at Nite or TV Land will probably show a marathon of the show in his memory...I think they did that with "All In The Family" when Carrol O'Connor died.

Herman Munster passed in the 90's. Butch Patrick/Eddie is still alive, but had become a serious drug addict. Ivonne De Carlo, not sure.

Man, I didn't know Herman passed away. That sucks. He rocked in "My Cousin Vinnie".
