I am also going to use this post to pay tribute (once again) to a great cast that has once again lost a member.

Russell Johnson (1924-2014) who played Professor Roy Hinkley, Jr. on "Gilligan's Island" passed away earlier this month.  With his passing that just leaves Tina Louise (Ginger) and Dawn Wells (Mary Ann) [79 and 75 respectively] with us.  Of course we also remember and celebrate...

Bob Denver/Gilligan (1935-2005)
Alan Hale, Jr. / Skipper Jonas Grumby (1921-1990)
Jim Backus / Mr. Thurston Howell III (1913-1990)
Natalie Schafer / Mrs. Eunice "Lovey" Wentworth Howell (1900-1991)

and certainly we remember the show's creator and biggest fan Mr. Sherwood Schwartz (1916-2011)
