Most noticeably known as the dad in the 80s TV sitcom "Growing Pains" - he also wrote the songs for the TV sitcoms "Different Strokes" (and also sang it) and "The Facts of Life"; and also the theme song for Wheel of Fortune.
I think I heard that he had a heart attack while working out or playing hockey or something. That's how I want to go -- quick and without any agony or fanfare.
