Wow, how ironic. Actually almost spooky. I just last night got done duping a Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour tape onto DVD for Moody and the special guest was ... DON HO.

I'm surprised he didn't die onstage.
He was a pretty stalwart entertainer.

AlohaDon.

According to the report, his final show was Thursday. So it was a near thing.

But really, what professional wants to die on stage?

I remember him from B&W TV days...
Someone has already made a little Tribute to him.
I thought I would share it;

Don Ho's daughter dies of drug overdose, apparently distraught over her father's death.

I agree. Very sad that she couldn't hold on at least for the sake of her children.
