I enjoyed watching Bonanza, it was my favortive show when i was growing up, I still watch it on T.V. land. In fact I watch with my two sons now. You will be missed alot. My heart goes out to his family , and may God bless his family in their time of loss.
I fell in love with Adam & Little Joe it was such a hard choice that which ever one was on the screen was my love for that moment, I started to watch when I was in first grade and on, on Bonanza on Saturday nights. It was the last show we could watch before bed for church on Sunday, it was a routine. Thank you Pernell for all your acting that was more to a little child, you fed all our dreams you let us know that we could be anything. “Rest in Peace.” I know that you are with God now. We all will miss you and I will pray for your family. Love you.
Obrigada, Sr. Roberts.
Nunca o esquecerei, mora em meu coração.
Para sempre.
