He was the person who did the infomercials for Oxiclean and Onge Glo. I always felt like he was yelling at you through the tv.

Another well known celebrity (well know only if you remember her from the 50's sitcoms) Gale Storm passed away a day or two ago. She did "My Little Marge" and I think another one called "The Gale Storm Show" If curious here is the You Tube link of her singing one of her famous hits. I don't recall her as being the singer, but do remember the song. Do you?

Karen,
I remmember Gale Storm. I used to love her shows and remember them from when I was very very young. She co-starred with Gale Gordon I believe on one if not both of the shows.
