RIP Huell Howser

[billharr]

Sad to read that Huell Howser has passed on. I enjoyed his California Gold shows. I have gone out of the way to see things because I have seen them on his show.

RIP Huell

I agree. Huells enthusiasm for the golden state was infectious.

Huell you are California Gold.

Not very long after he retired. I watched many many of his shows. Sad to see him go.

My office for many years was at Paul Rever Middle School in Brentwood. Huell did several shows from there. A true gentleman and genuine nice guy.

Dang,

I met him at the Vets day deal back in the '90s at Chirico Summit - Patton's Museum.

He stayed around with us for a few hours. He was not doing a filming, just hang'in out.
I gave him some petrified wood from AZ, as we were on our way back.

A regular guy who helped make the Dez what it is.

Watched so many. Thank you!

My regard and sorrow.

"We invite you to come along again with us next week as we continue our search together for California's gold. Goodbye everybody."

Goodbye Huell, we will miss you.

I too, add my thoughts on him, and saw many of those trips of his into all those interesting places! I know his spirit is sitting out there somewhere just waiting for us to visit!

Here's another tribute.

Today they said he died of prostate cancer. Musta known when he retired.
