Fess Parker, best known for playing Daniel Boone in a 1960s television series, died Thursday at his home near Santa Barbara, California, his publicist said. He was 85. A native of Texas, Parker served in the U.S. Navy during World War II before graduating from the University of Texas-Austin in 1950.

Interesting that Fess Parker died on the same day as my grandfather, Edward J. Geoffroy, Jr, who served in the 97th Division Field Artillery Battalion #389. Both in the same county, too.
