I am not a sopa watcher but remember him from his 'Bonanza' days.  He played 'Candy' after Little Joe left the show.  You have to be born with a jaw like that.

I saw this just this morning and how very sad.  I have so many memories of him even back to his Bonanza days.   I loved AMC and watched the show since the beginning when I was home from school until it ended and would watch on days off from work/holidays.   He was a wonderful actor.

I was so sad to hear this today.  Loved Stuart!  Few actors can pull off a dual role so well and he was the best of the best and in a class of his own.  He will be missed.  Smiley Sad

A great actor.Very few can pull off 2 so diverse characters on the same show and do it so well. Condolences to his family. TV Soaps have lost one of their very best.

 

RIP

Never an AMC watcher, but I remember him from Bonanza, he was in the last season or 2, a long lost Cartwright brother.

Interesting info from IMDb:

 

"In addition to playing Candy Canaday on Bonanza (1959), he has some noteworthy western forbears in his own family. He is the great-great-nephew of Martha Jane Canary, a.k.a. Calamity Jane."

I remember when he first appeared as Adam Chandler on AMC back in the 70's...Cant believe he is gone now.
