The Partridge Family star Dave Madden has died at the age of 82.
The Canadian-born actor passed away early on Thursday after suffering congestive heart and kidney failure, according to TMZ.
Madden began his career with an appearance on the sitcom Camp Runamuck in 1965 and rose to fame after starring in Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In.
But he will perhaps be best remembered for his role as long-suffering band manager Ruben Kincaid on popular 1970s sitcom The Partridge Family, which also featured David Cassidy and Danny Bonaduce.
He also made guest appearance on TV series like Bewitched, Happy Days, The Love Boat and Fantasy Island, in addition to Boy Meets World and Sabrina, the Teenage Witch.

Good lord. Did he do big brother?

He did some reality show POS, I'm certain I saw him on Celebrity Rehab. Not that I watched the show but I'd pay attention to the commercials for it if only to say "Holy crap, they really did let themselves go!"


Usually his presence on screen was an indication the channel needed to be changed though.
