It is with deep sadness that we regret to inform you of the passing of Don Herbert - the one and only "Mr. Wizard". Don lost his battle with cancer today, June 12, 2007, at 9 AM - slightly more than one month shy of his 90th birthday. He was lovingly surrounded by his family, who are at once, saddened by his passing, and relieved that he is no longer suffering.

I grew up watching Mr. Wizard. He was great and will be missed.

Almost 90 - God bless him!
