Sorrell Booke/Boss Hogg

My kids were just watching a Christmas episode of Full House on ABC Family channel and Sorrell was on. It was an episode from 1988, where everyone was stranded at an airport and little Michelle ripped of Boss's tupe' . In the end he was really Santa Clause and appeared dressed up as Santa, then magically disappeared. It was neat, cause I've never seen him perform anything else besides Boss. He still had a little southern draw in his voice.

A few months ago I saw this episode on TV Land channel. It took about 5 minutes before we recognized him! He was fairly thin and had a "normal" accent. All of a sudden I pointed and said "Hey, that's Boss Hogg!" It's the only time he appeared on Good Times. Here's the link http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0590861/ I prefer his "Boss Hogg" accent. Almost every sentence makes me laugh.

I know that Sorrel Booke has passed, but what caused his death and how old was he? Where did he live? Any kids? Ect.... Thank you! Aaron

Are their any web sites dedicated to Sorrell Booke?

When Boss Hogg loses his memory by hitting his head a couple times?

I thought that was a very nice touch to add to the story.
