Gary Collins Dies In Biloxi!

gary collins dead dies

So mournful!

Gary Collins was 74 when he passed away this morning.

Passing away around 1am, the legendary actor and host died of natural causes at Biloxi Regional Medical Center.

He and his wife, former Miss America Mary Ann Mobley, just separated last year. So sad…

Gary was a host of the pageant in the 80's. But that was just another notch on his impressive resume, with appearances on shows like Charlie's Angels, The Love Boat, and Fantasy Island. He was also a host of Hour Magazine.

Unfortunately, Gary had some run-ins with the law toward the end of his life. But hopefully he's at peace now…

He had three children.

Our thoughts are with his family right now.

Re: raypearson – I'm sorry, but I'm offended by the 1000mg oxy comment; I am 100% against all substance abuse.

I'm all for the RESPONSIBLE USE of Drugs & Alcohol.

Re: Be-Atch – Are you kidding; MAM spent decades banging the Cabana Boys while Gary was out nightly closing down every bar in the south, driving drunk, and crashing at cheap motels along the way. Gary spent every penny he had leaving MAM broke and destitute.

His TV show The Sixth Sense was terrific. Im glad to see he and Mary Ann Mobley reconciled before his death - they made such a beautiful couple.

Gary Collins lived an average life span. I do thank the person who challenged NA/AA. That program has been over-hyped far too long. It is not appropriate for everybody. The 12 Steps are not appropriate or effective for everybody. By this time, it be one of several options as a group support.

Hopefully since they go in THREES that WHORE & TRAMP Zsa Zsa GaWhore, the one-legged stumpy, will go next…..

I can't wait for SATAN to open the GATES OF HELL for that EVIL WOMAN……and for Nancy "BLOW-JOB-QUEEN" Davis after her…..
