Actor Adam West has died after a short battle with Leukemia he was 88 years old. He will be greatly missed he was a very funny man and great actor.
 
Most everyone remembers him as Batman (me too, of course) but, the medical office where I work almost always has "ME TV" playing the waiting room and I caught a glimpse of him appearing (as the handsome doctor) in this b&w episode of Petticoat Junction. 'Just thought I'd share :)

Adam West learned to embrace Batman role


He was married three times and had six children. West had homes in Los Angeles and Palm Springs, California, but he and his wife, Marcelle, spent most of their time at their ranch near Sun Valley, Idaho, where he remained in on the joke.

An online search of the Sun Valley directory for Adam West results in a prompt to “See Wayne, Bruce (Millionaire),” which results in “Please consult Crime Fighters in the Yellow Pages,” leading to “See Batman,” leading back to Adam West. None have phone numbers.

:D
