EDIT: It appears TWCJim has already made a thread about him (https://twctodayforums.com/forums/general-discussion/legendary-tv-producer-dick-clark-has-died/ (https://twctodayforums.com/forums/general-discussion/legendary-tv-producer-dick-clark-has-died/)). You beat me to it, Jim. As for you moderators, feel free to merge this with his. Sorry, everyone.

There are many things that won't be the same with Dick Clark gone as he made countless contributions to television, radio, and the entire entertainment industry.  May he rest in peace, and may his family find comfort during this difficult time.
