Richard Crenna says, "My career is like ragweed pollen".

Such a lovely man. He was so excited about "Mitch", the new ABC series that co-starred his pal, James Earl Jones. He called himself a "middle aged adolescent" and had been married to his wife Penny for 35 years. He is missed!
Richard Crenna starred in such motion pictures as The Sand Pebbles, Wait Until Dark, Un Flic, Body Heat, the first three Rambo movies, Hot Shots! Part Deux, the remake of Sabrina, and The Flamingo Kid. Crenna played "Walter Denton" in the CBS radio network and CBS-TV network series Our Miss Brooks and "Luke McCoy" in ABC's TV comedy series The Real McCoys, (1957–63), which moved to CBS-TV in September 1962.
At the time of his death, Richard was portraying the recurring character "Jared Duff" in Judging Amy. His death necessitated scripting Duff's death on that television series as well. Richard suffered from pancreatic cancer and died in 2003.
