WAGGONER AND FELLOW STARS

Before his milestone fame on "The Carol Burnett Show," the Hollywood legend debuted in "Gun Smoke" while going on to take on roles in series like "The Golden Girls," and "Charlie's Angel's" amongst others.

So far, Lyle isn't the only cast member of the acclaimed CBS show who passed on. Back in 2008, Harvey Korman died after suffering complications from an abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Tim Conway also passed away last year due to hydrocephalus. Before his death, Conway underwent brain surgery in 2018. He is survived by his long-time spouse, Charlene, and seven children.

Stars like Carol Burnett, Betty White, Dick Van Dyke, and Vicki Lawrence are still alive and kicking it in Hollywood.
