It definitely seems like he was cut down too soon - 49 is too young to go.<br /><br />My mom fondly remembered his role as "Mr. Peepers" fondly. <br /><br />I do remember he was cast in the role of the nebbish shoe salesman (who was supposed to pretend to play "Adam", the man Helen Wagstaff was marooned with) in the remake of "My Favorite Wife" called, "Something's Got To Give" starring Marilyn Monroe and Dean Martin. When Marilyn died, the film was scrapped, the cast changed and it was retitled, "Move Over Darling". Dino was replaced by James Garner, Marilyn was replaced by Doris Day and the shoe salesman played by Don Knotts. I saw some clips of that film and I have to say Cox should have been kept.magicdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10755186050643383954noreply@blogger.com
