(CNN) -- Actor Ron Palillo, who played class clown Arnold Horshack on the 1970s television comedy "Welcome Back, Kotter," has died at age 63, his agent said Tuesday.

Palillo died of a heart attack in the Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, area, where he had moved to live near his mother and was active in the theater, his agent, Scott Stander, told CNN.

Rest in peace, Ron.
Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.

For being such a dorky show (in retrospect) it sure seems iconic.

RIP and thanks for the entertainment.

Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

As a side note, when I watched the show as a kid I always though Mrs Kotter was kinda hot....

I have to admit, I had a crush on Mrs. Kotter as well.  But I really had the hots for Pinky Tuscadero.

Marcia Strassman (sp?).  See my post further up.  There's a link to her from 1975...so Did Lincoln have their version of the Sweathogs?  Were you Lincoln's Vinnie?   ;D

My junior high school and high school friends are my closest friends to this day, 25 years later! Out of the bunch I am most definitely Horshack. Maybe with a dash of Epstein.
