He was 86? He looked like he was 70 thirty years ago.

I recall he did a cameo as himself on "Murphy Brown."

Maybe he was a modern day Dorian Grey who just waited a few too many years before getting his picture painted.

Wow, I thought he was already dead....

He was one of the highlights of watching the news, back when I used to actually pay attention to it....

Are you insinuating that young Mr. Utley has passed on to the great beyond? According to Wikipedia, he is still kicking (and, in fact, is still a few months from his 70th birthday).
