The actor passed away “peacefully” amid a battle with Lewy body dementia, his family said.
"Gosh, I have so many," said the 75-year-old at the time."But there’s one spectacular scene I did with Frank Bonner, who played the salesman who was always after me. Jan Smithers, who played Bailey Quarters, told me to accept a date with him and maybe I would scare him away and he would leave me alone."
Frank Bonner stars as advertising salesman Herb Tarlek, on WKRP in Cincinnati, a CBS television situation comedy about characters at a radio station. Originally broadcast September 18, 1978. "However, it didn’t scare him," she continued."We have a scene alone in my apartment, which was so beautifully written. Frank is really poignant in it. It was such a wonderful scene to play because he’s so talented and gifted.
The outlet noted that Bonner is survived by his wife, two adult daughters, two adult sons, seven grandchildren and a great-grandchild.
