Stephen J. Cannell age 69

What a sad day for me. Stephen J. Cannell, the write/producer of many of our great tv shows, has passed away. In 1996 I had an interview scheduled to work for his production company. Unfortunately early that morning we had the Northridge quake. I guess it wasn't meant to be. R.I.P. Stephen, there will never be another one like you.

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Stephen J. Cannell, the voracious writer-producer of dozens of series that included TV favorites "The Rockford Files," "The A-Team" and "The Commish," has died at age 69.

 

Cannell passed away at his home in Pasadena, Calif., on Thursday night from complications associated with melanoma, his family said in a statement on Friday.

 

Cannell is survived by Marcia, his wife of 46 years, their three children, and three grandchildren.

RIP Mr. Cannell. Loved his shows. Melanoma is terrible, that is what my first husband died of, complications from.
