Your portrayal of Mark on "The Rifleman" as a young boy growing up in New Mexico territory will always be remembered! Dead at 75 suffering with that dreadful Alzheimer's disease. Heaven has a new cowboy.

thank you for the memories

He watched his "Dad" kill more people than polio. ALZ is a bad way to go.
He was also a singing star. He had several top 40 hits on the radio.

Pretty sure I've read where he knew by memory the words to over 5 K songs and never had to "study" his TV lines, just read'em once and he had them down pat. Very sad he's gone but now maybe his brain is at rest..........RIP

Just reading up on him he was in the army also
He did a lot I did not know about
Not like today's in your face drama
Sad, I think all of the 50 & early 60s TV western stars are gone. James Drury and Hugh O'Brian passed last year. Thank goodness for the old reruns. Good stuff to watch,
I read Johnny was the last one alive about a year ago from the early westerns .
