When we lived in Hollywood off Franklin, I stopped at the Mobil station for gas and at the next pump was a beautiful Mercedes and Morgan was pumping his own gas. I waited until he was done, introduced myself to him. “Mr. Woodward, it’s an honor to meet you. You were my Dad’s favorite bad guy on Gunsmoke. He was incredibly gracious, told me to tell my Dad hello for him. I told him my Dad had passed. Morgan paused, looked skyward and gave a small salute. I’ve never forgotten that. We shook hands, I thanked him once more and he got back in his car and pulled away.

I always wondered in Disney's 'Great Locomotive Chase' who that crazy civil war army guy on the train was; singing, pushy, crazy strange character. I found out it was Morgan. About five years ago, he came to the Hollywood show to sign autographs. I had a DVD of 'Locomotive Chase' with a message under the cover plastic of which 'chapter number' his scene was in and gave it to him. He was with some young women who seemed like family and they said, they'd be sure to screen it with him when they got home. It was Morgan's first job. I asked, "How did you come up with that wild, scary, crazy character." Morgan said, "I was just happy to be in my first movie." So be sure to check him out in the 'Great Locomotive Chase'. I saw him again six months later at the show and he remembered me and thanked me for the DVD. I've watched most of your Word on Westerns shows and sent Johnny Crawford some help thanks to your show.

One afternoon seated at the bar in the Cock and Bull on the Strip, another favorite sat down beside me. It was Morgan Woodward and we struck up a conversation. Familiar with the numerous TV shows he had done, I asked why he had yet to do the WWW. He grinned and said he was told he was too tall to be cast on the show. Never appearing on the WWW did Woodward no damage, but it was the show's loss never casting him as one of its bigger-than-life villains.

As each WESTERN actor leaves us year by year, a part of us they grew-up watching them over-and-over on TV in both classic and not so classic movies and shows...a part of us goes with them, because they were just like family! That's why the WESTERN genre is so unique and special... it has that alumni/family feeling where even so many of the actors themselves, and even crew members, become life-long friends. They grow old together attending the funerals, the wakes and the laughter and tears of memorials that only their dear friend ROB WORD could put together! Call it good old western style hospitality and respect, that sadly one day will itself be just a memory...
