Sheriff John's 91st birthday

I talked with Sheriff John Rovick by phone yesterday (Oct.2) his 91st birthday.
He sounded good and was very pleased with the birthday
wish. He said the folks at his assisted living facility were going to celebrate
with him at dinner last night and they had already sang "Put Another
Candle on your Birthday Cake." Sheriff John lives in Boise, ID. I visited with him this past May.
 
Well then, a hearty happy birthday wish to the lawman! Happy birthday, Sheriff!

Second that. A couple of generations of Los Angeles kids loved Sheriff John. I mentioned him in the thread on "favorite TV shows" of the 50s and 60s.

Like a number of the kid show hosts of the 60s, John Rovick was a multi-tasker. I believe he was also KTTV's staff announcer. You'd hear his voice at all times of the day and night.

A tribute to Sheriff John from YouTube, hosted by Tony Dow:
