If I'm not mistaken, he passed in 2014.

I have seen him on stage around '73. He was to incapacitated to perform. He excused himself and left.

You can't get any deader when you're already dead. Continue to rest in peace Joe.

A few weeks ago there was a hoax going around on Facebook that Roy Clark died. Roy's great, and a lot of us grew up listening to him, but what possesses a person to come up with that one?

I'm going to start a hoax that Roy Clark died. Man, this is gonna be great fun!

75% or more of the people on F-book probably have no clue who Roy Clark even is.
