[Locutus]

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Jack Klugman, the prolific, craggy-faced character actor and regular guy who was loved by millions as the messy one in TV's "The Odd Couple" and the crime-fighting coroner in "Quincy, M.E.," died Monday, a son said. He was 90.

Klugman, who lost his voice to throat cancer in the 1980s and trained himself to speak again, died with his wife at his side.

This is another example of the problem of me getting old, the older ones die and the younger ones just don't measure up. As the older ones rest in the cemeteries the younger ones just want to plough it up and build condos. I admired Jack he was a good person. R.I.P.

Jack was a good guy and he will be missed, as for the younger ones I disagree
I have twenty two grand kids and the older ones all have a social conscience,
they all participate and all of them are doing what they want to do and are good
at what they do.

R.I.P. Jack.

The Odd Couple was a staple of my childhood. I will always remember him as Oscar Madison.
