Yeah, another 80s legend has been lost. This seemed sudden as his diagnosis was announced very recently.  Or maybe it was known for longer but it was just revealed to the public this year.  
 

Funny thing is, I never really got into Saved By the Bell.  I think it displaced a cartoon in the Saturday morning lineup I liked and I was angry about it.  Yeah, I’m old.
