An era has passed. The cleavers will never be forgotten. Simpler times that we will cherish.
I still watch the show just to escape reality, Simpler times is right!
Simpler times indeed
To simpler and happier times. Never thought I'd see the day. RIP Tony Dow.
@@Barnabas45 nothing to escape .. embrace it..
I disagree.
Man I loved leave it to Beaver, and Tony Dow.Not to mention the whole cast. What a great show
HES BURNING IN HELL 🔥
May he be at peace 🕊 & may we always remember him fondly as Wally Cleaver. Thank you for ALL you gave. 🙏🏼🥺💔😢❤️
Wally Cleaver
@@SEXYMAN11127 thanks 😊
Amen❤
Rip Tony. You were a big brother to all of us.
Facts💯
God bless him and his family
@Mot Goaiu spamming is already a terrible way to grow your channel, but could you think of a more tasteless way to do it than this, a thread about someones death?
@@AdamsBrew78 Hear hear, Adams Brew.
I'm saddened to know Tony Dow has passed away. I grew up with him. I admired him. I never had any siblings. I would pretend he was my older brother that I never had. I can still remember looking for frogs too, in our local pond we called Miller's Pond in 1961. Thanks for helping make my childhood an enjoyable, and memorable experience. Rest in Peace brother.
im glad we can still watch leave it to beaver. that is something his death cant take from us. rip tony your suffering is over.
Amen.
RIP Tony. I just found out today. Been a huge fan of leave it to beaver for a long time, great family show back in the late 50"s right into the early 60's. Well...so long Tony and thank you for being a part of that legendary tv show. Farewell.
Don't feel too bad about just finding out today since he literally just died today lol
"Hello, Mrs. Cleaver. I was just telling Clarence and Theodore that I was worried about Wallace." -- Eddie Haskell
Heartfelt condolences to his wife, son and all family members and friends. Watched Leave it to Beaver as a kid, and still watch reruns to this day. Fly high, Tony and as another poster said, you were a big brother to us all. A very sad day..
My wife and I watch almost every morning the reruns. The parents are the best.
I watch the reruns of lave it to beaver condolences to Tony family it seem Ike u reay knew the cleaver family
I met him when I was a little kid and he was in his 20s at a restaurant. Just as nice irl.
@ashley1994 My mistake. He has a son and grandchildren. Why come and rock the boat over something so silly when a man has just lost his life? To us of a certain age, he was like an older brother to all of us. Do you have a need for attention? Run along.
@@IMeMineWho awe that's great. Lucky. I bet he was great even just being regular person and not famous.
May he rest in peace. He was excellent.
The last vestiges of the good old days are being swept away. I was Beaver's age at the time of the show, and it felt like a reflection of my life. Back in a time when the pace was slower, and people just chatted with each other without hurrying all the time. At the corner mom and pop store they had 5-cent bottled cokes in the machine they had outside the store. My generation and childhood idols are going away. RIP.
Tony Dow , a stand up Person, we need more people like him , Tony you will be greatly missed, but not forgotten
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
My first crush. I still have the autographed picture he sent me sixty years ago and I still treasure it. What a great actor and a wonderful gentleman. In honor of the show, today I dusted with my pearls on!!! God bless Tony and his family.
8 am in PA. Watching Leave it to Beaver now. Tears falling. Another piece of my childhood gone.
Tony Thank you for making my childhood a little better than it was in reality. May Sweet Jesus welcome you with His Loving Arms and may you rest in peace 🙏. God Bless.
A simpler time in the world that will never be duplicated. We were fortunate to grow up with this gentle, talented, peaceful young guy.
Hopefully his wife, and children as well friends, and those that loved him will find peace, and great comfort. God rest his soul, and thank God for it.
Thank you Tony Dow, you did real well, you managed to touch all of us.
Tony Dow, was a joy to watch growing up, he set a wonderful example for us young boys and I have found memories of the entire cast on Beaver.
I continued to follow both actors throughout the years and Tony was the real deal.
Thank you for entertaining us all these years and you will be missed…rest In Peace Mr.Dow 🙏🏾🕊✌🏽
Beautifully worded.
That show really showed young men how to behave, at home, at school and with young ladies. Wally was a wonderful example, to Eddie Haskell and all of us.
@@bobs1356 Thanks Bob.
I LOVED Tony dow I grew up on leave it to beaver. Never missed it when it was on. He is an icon & will surely be missed by millions. Godspeed Mr. Dow & may the good lord cherish you as we did. RIP.
Me to RIP.
That's for sure.🙏
Rest in peace Tony I love you as Wally on the beaver
This year's losses have been tough, and we are only half way through it. RIP Tony Dow. 🙏
Rest in peace Wally, always wanted to be like you but ended up being Lumpy.
I'm sure he would of loved you anyways . 👍
At least you didn’t end up being Eddie.
Silver linings!
I join the legions of Baby Boomers and beyond for whom the name Tony Dow aka Wally Cleaver brings the fondest of memories and the warmest of feelings. I truly hope that as you crossed over to eternal rest you knew that you left an enduring mark of sweetness and light on the world. Rest in peace Tony.
Tony was an awesome actor, I really liked the way, he acted on the. Show one of my favorite shows. I will miss him dearly. My sincere sympathy to Tony's family & to Jerry Mathers too, who played his brother on the show. Annette
Condolences to Tony Dow’s family.
Loved watching him as the Beaver’s big brother.
Tony Dow, everyones big brother!! Thankfully, I can watch LITB and see Wally in his letterman jacket!!
Such a good looking teen
Sheesh I hate cancer. Rest In Peace Tony D.
RIP Wally...
He is known for fastidious man. The actor has died. He has shared cancer diagnosis earlier this year. Born in California in 1945.
He learned he had gotten of the role of Wally.
What do you do that for?
He was always the kindest most generous gentle loving sincere and humble man, All the tributes.
This is my honor and privilege to be able to share memories together.
As a child, I've watched Leave It to Beaver reruns and became familiar with Tony Dow. He was such a tremendous part of the history of television that his legacy will endure for years to come. I will be one of many to miss his presence on Earth. May you RIP Wally Cleaver.
Now it is left to Beaver-the last of the main characters from this show.
I see what you did there. 🙂
RIP, Tony Dow.
R.i.p Tony 💔
You lived a long life
This used to be my favorite show growing up as a kid. I actually wasn't alive yet when the show was originally on TV but I used to watch the reruns and watched every episode several times back in the seventies and eighties. Definitely marks the end of an era as it's almost as if part of my childhood that has died. You know you're getting old When the children of the shows you used to watch are starting to pass away like Tony Dow and two years ago Ken Osmond who played Eddie Haskell. ☹️☹️☹️
If there's an afterlife with internet connection Tony Dow knows he was the classic big brother figure for millions of us who were kids back in the 1960s and 1970s or every kid who watched Leave It To Beaver on endless reruns. RIP Tony, you'll be remembered for decades and generations to come.
Praying for the Dow family! 🙏🙏🙏
AMEN 🙏
RIP Tony Dow: Wally! You were loved and will be missed! Go give Eddie the business! 😆 💕
😂 yeah, I loved Eddie
@@SUGAR_XYLER 😆 Me too!
One of the greatest and moral shows of all times. Wish there could be more shows like it. TV has turned into garbage. RIP Tony
RIP Tony Dow. You will always be in my memory.
He will be missed. Such a sweet kid to watch...growing up.
ahhhh, I remember watching this TV show as a child. Imagine, this little Filipino girl fresh from the islands introduced to these cuties : ) I truely loved the boys and I can still remember my joy watching the show and learning English at the same time. Thank you Mr. Tony Dow , RIP.
Rest In Blessed Peace Mr. Dow. My husband bought me the entire 'Leave It To Beaver' series. It's comforting to know that there were once shows like yours that had values and morals. Thank you for the memories of simpler times and kinder- hearted people.
Rip Tony! Loved you guys. Grew up watching reruns of the show in the 80's! Still love it..rip in peace, dear Tony. Thanks for the memories!
I’m going to miss him I still watch leave it to Beaver till today I’m 62 and I will always watch it and remember him for the rest of my life until I die he was the great actor specially on leave it to Beaver God bless your soul
I grew up washing the show he made me laugh and still makes me laugh every time I watch it I’m 62 years old thank you for all the great time.
His handsome face and honest personality were the first things I saw when I came into this world, I thought everyone was going to be like him
@ashley1994 Wow. SMH.
@@josephhaynes3017 i m guessing that Ashley has a Big-Brother "Complex"...or sumpin' UHA
We all loved his big brother part. He seamed to have a good head on his shoulder in his role which was good for viewers.
Wally is who I wanted to be as kid. RIP Tony!
WALLY!!!! (BEAVER CRYING) REST in Peace!!
Sending my condolences to the Dow family
Rest In Peace 🙏🙏🙏prayers goes to the family
Sad shows you grew up with losing all the actors. RIP Tony
We still have Jerry Mather.
@@JudgeJulieLit still the Beaver 🦫
Rest in heaven Tony , you’ll forever be everyone’s big bro Wally Cleaver.
Whenever I watched Leave It to Beaver reruns back in the 80’s, it made me feel relaxed and I felt like I left the stresses of life behind for a half hour. So sorry to hear about Wally(Tony)
Thanks for the memories, I grew up with, RIP TONY ,
GODSPEED
As the youngest and only girl with four older brothers, I took my cues from "Leave it to Beaver." This show defines many a childhood in America.
SORRY TO HEAR IT
RIP WALLY YOURE MISSED
🙏 💜❤️
Just going home
RIP Tony Dow.😔
I enjoyed " Leave It To Beaver" when I was growing up.
RIP Tony... watching shows like Leave It To Beaver, helps us all go back into a simpler, seemingly, happier time,,,
@ashley1994 It was a happier time because people had manners and not sense of entitlement. These so called necessary electronic devices don’t make anyone happier but exactly the opposite. Living without cell phones and internet meant we spoke to one another and learned to get along with each other and share social skills lacking today.
Heartbreaking! Tony Dow was a great actor! I grew up watching Leave it Beaver in Syndication. All watched the All New Leaver to Beaver in the 80's! Tony's wife and the rest of his family and friends are in my thoughts and prayers! See you later Tony! We miss you!
I can still hear my dad saying to my brother and me: "Too bad you boys can't be more like Wally and Beaver!" But, we (and my sisters) never missed an episode. I "tried" to style my hair like Wally's, but just could never get it just right! Our local MeTV station here in the Tampa-area (WFLA) shows two episodes of "Leave It To Beaver" every weekday morning from 8 - 9 am. Hardly ever miss a show, although I have seen most of them many, many times! Thanks for a great show and many great memories, Tony! Fair winds and following seas!
😔🙏💛 another reminder that we all have expiration dates for the most part we don't know when it's time for us to go so live life everyday in Harmony and live it full and amazing. Many of us are too caught up in Democrat Republican gay or straight we're only here for a short time let's enjoy while we can. I will go listen to to the Leave it to Beaver intro now👍💛🙏
He was my favorite on LITB - Rest in Peace Tony
Respect and Condolences to the family of Mr.Dow.🙏❤️
Met him a few years ago. Nice dude. Say hi to Ward and and Eddie and Lumpy and Gus and June and... Good Lord a lot of people from that show are dead.
RIP Tony Dow I will always remember you as Wally Cleaver
Tony Dow played the big brother that was a great role model! Adorable as a young boy and as an adult. R.I.P. 🙏❤️ Tony Dow
So sad to hear. July 27th is not a good day for me as this day 15 years ago I lost my dad to cancer. So a bad day is now worse. Now the beaver is the last surviving actor in the family.
I understand. Some anniversaries just suck..and suck. My condolences.
My sincere condolences to the Dow Family. Gonna miss you, Wally. Thanks for all the "swell" memories.
I am so devastated,the Andy Griffith show and Leave it to Beaver show all my all-time favorites
I was born in 1960 .. watched all the episodes 😭

Hugh Beaumont was a very decent man that taught those two a lot on how to be decent men! Parents, if you have young kids, by all means expose them to the Cleaver's!

Watched Leave It To Beaver when it was originally broadcasted. Enjoyed every week the comings n goings of the Cleaver family. Thank you Tony Dow for "coming into my living room every week." It was like having a big brother there. RIP. Kudos for upload. Anticipating ur next one.
"Wally" you will be missed, we all loved you. R.I.P.
Rest in peace Tony Dow I loved you for many many years you were a great actor and my family and I always watched you on the Leave it to Beaver we waited for the show to come on and my family and I were all in front of the TV watching you and the rest of the cast rest in peace Tony Dow we love you always
I am so sad about this. Rest in peace Tony. I still watch your show in the morning when I'm having coffee. Leave it to Beaver crosses generations of Americans.
I grew up watching that show . It is sad that he pass away all of my siblings grew up watching leave it to beaver our family watch and enjoyed that tv family now it's like losing a relative . I will keep the dow and the Mathers family in my prayers . Wally will be miss
You outlived Eddie and Lumpy. RIP
One of my top 5 favorite shows ever,and wally was my favorite character,Mr. everthing on the show,thx for the memories,R.I.P. brother. 🙏🏼
I'm so SAD 😢 I watch "Leave it to Beaver" every day. Love this 50's type of family life. Condolences to his wife, children, family & cast members like Jerry Mathers. Most of the cast has sadly passed away. 😢
Dam It!!!! Rest in Peace Mr Dow...I grew up (in 60's) watchn Wally on Leave it to Beaver...
Loved his answers with his parents how they would roll their eyes or the father would put his head gown and kind of chuckle.
Tony Dow gave a good acting performance on that show; he made his Wally character believable. Compare his fine work to the phony, garbage acting that you get from the young performers on crappy shows such as "Growing Pains" or "The Goldbergs".
Rest In Heavenly Paradise Tony Dow
(Wally) 😢🙏💔
We all love you 💞💞💞
Sad to hear this but we live a life and we pass on into another realm ...a spiritual realm. He brought joy in my life as Wally. R. I. P. Sir...Salute!!!
It's Jan 2023 & I still can't believe he's gone! Thanks for all of the great acting & memories! Always been handsome! My condolences to his family, friends & fans! RIP Mr. Dow! 💜💎💙😭👑🙏💝
He was the funny one and the assertive one. Tony was my fave. I cannot imagine the show without him. RIP great man !
*"Boy, you really did it this time, Beaver!"*
But whenever Eddie Haskell picked on Beaver: *"Aw, cut it out, will ya Eddie."*
Eddie's not his brother...get it ?
I feel like another wonderful part of my childhood, just passed away. Tony was a big brother to so many children, as he portrayed Wally. The only one left now, is Jerry Mathers, as the Beaver. Sympathies to his wife and son.
@ashley1994 yea...most have been been "vaccinated" while laying down on the "Casting Couch"...very...very sad to see
So sad! 77 is early. I hate Cancer so much. Watched Leave it to Beaver reruns everyday after school! I fell in love with pearls thanks to June Cleaver. May he rest in peace. 🙏🏻
Rest in peace... I so enjoyed watching you on TV growing up.
May you Rest in Peace Mr. Dow. Watching you grow up in front of us made us feel as you were our Big Brother as well. You're going to be greatly missed and appreciated.
