"I don't drink, never have..." That surprised the hell out of me. He had that demeanor kinda like Dean Martin.

Bless his heart, what an enchanting love story. I watched the interview with his children right after he passed away & they were just lovely people. They said he had just been diagnosed with esophageal cancer 3 weeks before, but then had a heart attack. I certainly understood what they meant when they said, it was kind of a blessing that he didn't have to suffer through months of cancer treatment, I am sure that was a way of bringing comfort & having watched my sister go through that was hard enough on us, I can only imagine how hard it was for her & she lost the battle even with the treatments almost exactly a year later.

He really was something special. Been watching the old Match Games and not only was he witty and funny, but he was smart and could read the contestants well...On Match Game some guests answer the '________' blank with what THEY think should be there, Richard always tried to actually MATCH what the contestant might say. Obviously

I just saw the 1966 motion picture "Munster Go Home" at an actual theater a couple of weeks ago. I hadn't seen it in years. While watching the film to my utter delight, Richard appears on the big screen. The audience started applauding! I had forgotten he was in the film! That's the kind of admiration Mr. Dawson has earned. It's wonderful to see him here. Thanks so much for sharing this.

Its good to see this interview. I always wonder how Richard is today since he's in retirement.. I miss him on tv. I watched Match Game every morning before I head to work. I don't know if his Family Feud is still on the GSN. I don't watch GSN that much anymore.

When he met his wife and then called her after her family left the show after losing, Gretchen was 24 and Richard was 49. He called her and they were married one year later. Ok, when I turn 49 I am sure I will get a woman who is 24 that will want to marry me too. Yeah right? lol I'll call her only by accidentally obtaining her number, and she'll hang up on me. Fame & money can get you a lot in life. Not that it can buy happiness, but it certainly helped here. I mean really... if another ordinary man twice her age would have asked for her number back then do you think she would gave given it to him? Point made!
