My wife, Dianne, and I were two of those kids who ran home from school every day to catch the latest episode of Dark Shadows at 4 pm. We recently started watching Dark Shadows again from the beginning on DVD with as much fascination and excitement as the first time we saw it back in the 60's...especially the episodes that feature Jonathan Frid as Barnabas Collins. He was an actor of the highest caliber and will truly be missed by all those who were his fans while growing up, and still are after all these years. Jonathan brought such a rich quallity and deep dimension to the character of Barnabas Collins, which has been duplicated in recent films and television series, but never with the intensity and soulfulness that Jonathan did. We extend our condolences to his nephew Donald, and all those fans of Jonathan Frid who are feeling the same sense of loss as us. Rest in peace Jonathan...
