I think that it is important to remember the celebrities as well as all of the others who we've lost to AIDS. It should be reminded to the young & those who believe that they're invincible that while there are better meds now & HIV can be endured for much longer....we still have no cure! Play safe!!!
Geez I remember both of them well. And I didn't realize either of them were gay and certainly didn't know they had died. Not too long ago I saw Tom on some reruns of the game show 'Body Language'. He did dress quite flamboyantly, but I just thought it was part of his humor.
Timothy was really cute but I had kinda forgotten about him after 'Dallas'.
I guess Tom Built his own house or something. I tried to get a copy of the magazine that had the article,but was unable. I didn't realize he was gay either, I had a crush on him when I saw him in Popcorn!
Tom Villard
I loved him on Golden Girls, he played two different characters on two different episodes.
I also LOVED that show We Got It Made in the '80s. It was awesome.
here's a pic of Timothy Patrick Murphy
And here's another pic of him in Dallas
I had crushes on both of them when I was younger.
I know!! I loved Timothy Patrick Murphy! so sad they're not with us any more ;(
I remember Tom Villard. I didn't know he had passed away. I always loved his goofy sounding voice and his crooked smile! RIP to both gentlemen.
Wanna see my grandkids?
SPOILER!
Tom played the killer in 'Popcorn'
Fuck AIDS. Fucker.
I am in LOVE with your fat baby. That baby is about the cutest thing I have seen in a long time. My first born just graduated on Friday!!! (But I will wait 10+ years for my own fat baby grandchild.)
I remember Tom Villard as the killer in Popcorn and it really is not bad of a film. Tom reminds me of Jim Carrey too.
I kind of like it also-pretty darn decent film. You are right about Tom, he does remind me of Jim. He also built his own house also- I guess it was
written about in an article in one of those architecture magazines years ago.
The girl who played the maid in the sitcom 'We got it Made' has an odd website. It really isn't as much her site. It supposedly is her site,but it is more of a site for a church.
I remember Timothy Patrick Murphy but all I ever saw him in was Dallas...he was a hunky man! I was sorry to hear he had passed away.
Never heard of either of them.
He played in a season or two of Dallas in the 80's. The other guy I have seen from time to time but didn't know who he was until reading about him on here..Thanks, Hoxharding, for posting info about them.
Tom Villard's voice cracked me up. Loved him in My Girl as the hippie and in the Golden Girls episodes.
Both Tim and his "Dallas" character Mickey Trotter died tragic deaths at young ages. I watched the season 6 DVD where Mickey tried to stop a drunk Sue Ellen from driving drunk off the Southfork ranch. and they crashed and he was paralyzed for life and the family pulled the plug on him.Mickey and Lucy[Charlene Tilton] were cute together. I remember him on "Search For Tommorrow" before Dallas.
I remember Tom Villard- had no idea he died- and so long ago. Trippy. RIP.
Performing my signature monkey hump move since 10/16/2007...
RIP Dad- 11/14/1947 to 12/16/2013
