Tom Poston: 1921-2007

There was always something likable about Tom Poston. You could just kind of tell he was an incredibly decent and nice man, someone who could make even Bob Newhart seem unexceptional in the meek department. Whether he played cranky or resigned (the two states I really remember him in), he was always endearing, and someone you wanted to know and interact with on a regular basis. You just wanted Tom Poston to like you, because you liked him so much instinctively. Now this nice man is gone, and that's to bad, I had always hoped to see more of him.
