He has held a part of my heart for as long as i can remember. My earliest memories are of watching Bonanza and I grew up wanting an Adam of my own. (I did get one). Even as a teenage girl when he was portraying Trapper John, I found him to be a comfort to me. I was going through health issues as was my dad (who was a true cowboy himself) and we were seeing the inside of a hospital too much, we loved watching Pernell play a surgeon, amd wished in my 15 year old way that he was my doctor. <br />If there was one person I wish I could have been friends with, it would be him. Now as a woman in my 50s, I wish it even more, because we had so many interests in common and even now after his death, he is a wonderful teacher through people like yourself, who share his wisdom with us. My deepest condolences on the loss of your friend. I lost my dear husband to pancreatic cancer just 3 years after Mr. Roberts passed, and wonder why that monster takes my heros...those cowboys. <br />Again Thank You.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07672700651567209977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1375418294983334856.post-15903237129250871172017-09-30T07:44:55.340-07:002017-09-30T07:44:55.340-07:00R.I P., very nice tribute.R.I P., very nice tribute.Laufschlaffi https://www.blogger.com/profile/04382234980185787657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1375418294983334856.post-9478453506034052022016-08-20T13:07:59.998-07:002016-08-20T13:07:59.998-07:00Such a nice tribute to your friend.

I've been so happy to see blog posts, articles, comments online at news sites and obituary guestbooks, etc., emerge since his death that bring out aspects of the real man, the one whom you knew and loved so well, that went beyond specific roles he played. I always appreciated the way you would carefully share some stories about him on some of the Bonanza message boards and e-mail lists and in fan gatherings but always very judiciously, without violating confidences and always respecting his privacy and your friendship.You were a true friend to him, as he was to you.Thank you for sharing him with us, and my condolences on your loss, and Eleanor's and that of all the dear friends who cherished him, which is so much greater than our own, who only kew him through his marvelous performances and what we've heard and read of his personal character. Having lost my husband to pancreatic cancer only three years ago, I know only too well what his loved ones must have been through over the past few years.<br /><br />I also enjoyed your word-origin articles in Bonanza Gold, even more so to know that Pernell also had a fascination with word origins, as I do. I wish I'd had the opportunity to meet him and discuss that topic or any others with him and to hear that fantastic voice in person. He will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and Eleanor and all his family and friends.<br /><br />Valerie EllisUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14736257435481354124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1375418294983334856.post-71618259863897464172010-01-31T17:35:08.636-08:002010-01-31T17:35:08.636-08:00Beautiful tribute Jean!

Thanks for sharing this lovely remembrance. ...Jean,<br />Thanks for sharing this lovely remembrance. Pernell was a wonderful man, a good friend, and a big part of my life, especially when I was just beginning as an actor. He was a true inspiration to me, as he was to many actors over the years. I was so lucky to have shared the screen with him for nearly eight seasons, and am deeply saddened at his passing. Fortunately, he lives on in the memories of his fans, and in the hearts of the lucky people, like you and me, that he touched personally. I'll be forever grateful to him.<br />Fondly,<br />Gregory Harrisongnhsurfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10665249561071571913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1375418294983334856.post-36950462574712287322010-01-29T13:27:19.652-08:002010-01-29T13:27:19.652-08:00Such a beautiful tribute.

Thank you.<br /><br />Pernell was such an embodiment of everything that was good about the 1960s, with its promise and re-assesment along with its tragedy and heartache.
