Actor Johnny Crawford, known for playing Chuck Connors’ son in ABC series “The Rifleman” from 1958-63, has died. He was 75.
He was an original Mouseketeer and a singer/songwriter.
Rest In Peace. I was a fan.

I remember him. Another one from youth gone May he rest in peace.

@twinsister I remember him as a Mouseketeer and as the Rifleman's son. I agree with your statement.
There were three children living in the house next door to the one I grew up in. One was my age and looked just like Johnny Crawford. I haven't seen him since we graduated from high school so I have no idea what he looks like now.

Aw, that's sad. He was one of my first crushes when he was on The Rifleman. I think he didn't get messed up like so many child actors; last picture I saw of him he sure was aging well.

I loved Johnny Crawford on the Rifleman. Never missed a show. I also loved the song "Cindy's Birthday" that he sang.
He also had his own band called The Johnny Crawford Orchestra.
I saw a couple of performances on You Tube years ago. He was one of the few child actors that grew up normal. He was a very kind and down to earth person. May he rest in peace.

I'm shocked! So young to have such a debilitating disease.

He was still handsome as an adult.

Oh, I'm sad to hear this. As someone mentioned -- he was normal and had such a kind face. Listened to his songs so much as a kid and watched his show. My favorite - Don't know much about history... I hope he had a happy life.
