The actor who specialized in portraying best friends and funny neighbors has died.
Bill Daily passed away Tuesday of natural causes in Santa Fe, New Mexico at the age of 91. Daily is best known for playing Roger Healy on “I Dream of Jeannie.” He later appeared as Howard Borden on the 70s sitcom “The Bob Newhart Show.” In an interview, Daily said the star of the MTM series had a low-key style that wasn’t really for everyone. “Jeannie” star Barbara Eden tweeted that Daily “was a funny, sweet man that kept us all on our toes.” Bob Newhart called him “one of the most positive people I ever knew and we’ll dearly miss him.”
Daily’s son Patrick says his dad lived by the rule “Happiness is a decision that you make.”
