The actors Robert Taylor (1911-1969), and Dale Robertson (1923-2013), also succeeded in playing the role until the series ended its run in 1970. He passed away from undisclosed causes in Los Angeles, California, on June 23, 1969, at the age of 77. Following his death, his funeral service was held at Glenhaven Mortuaries Chapel in Sylmar, California, and a requiem mass was celebrated at Our Lady of Lourdes Roman Catholic Church in Northridge, California, and he was buried in Glen Haven Memorial Park in Sylmar, California.
