JAMIE FARR – 86 YEARS OLD

Jamie Farr was well remembered as Corporal Klinger in the hit TV sitcom M*A*S*H. With his cross-dressing antics, he quickly became one of the most loved characters in the series. However, his popularity in the series didn’t continue through the next page of his career and he only got minor roles and guest appearances on shows such as The Love Boat and That ‘70s Show.

His impact on the movie and tv scene didn’t go unnoticed by folks in his hometown and to his credit, a park in Toledo, Ohio was renamed after him. From 1984 to 2012, Farr sponsored a women’s Professional golf tournament in Ohio under his own name (with the exception of 1986 and 2011). Farr has been married to Joy Ann Richards for 57 years and has two children, Jonas and Yvonne. And they have a grandson called Dorian.
