    On June 2, 2012, America lost a legendary game show host, actor, and panelist.

    Richard Dawson, host of the original Family Feud, and also known as a panelist for the original Match Game as well as acting in Hogan's Heroes, died of esophagal cancer. He was 78.

    I'll miss the way he charmed every lady within a fifty foot radius, as well as his snark and ridiculing of bad Feud contestants.

    This death also marks the sixteenth anniversary of the death of the host who replaced (and was later replaced by) Dawson, Ray Combs.

    RIP "The Kissing Bandit"

    Don't forget - he was the best actor in "The Running Man" as well.

    I will indeed miss him.
