Fess Parker just passed away.

At 6'6", Fess Parker was awesome as Davey Crockett and Daniel Boone in movies and TV. He was exactly what all of us little boys wanted to be when we grew up. No one loved him more than my best friend, who passed away on a Mothers Day...years ago. Call me crazy, but I see my friend making a fuss over actually meeting Fess Parker this week. He was like that.
