I take these things very hard since Dukes have been a big part of my life when they debuted in 1979 and these actors are truly family. I'm grateful for the HazzardNet because you folks can relate to the pain I'm feeling now. My condolences to all of you.
There is a happy reunion in Hazzard Heaven today between Boss, Rosco and Cletus. But there are plenty of tears on Earth for those of us who loved Cletus/Rick.
I just checked the family section in my notebook and there is not a whole lot of his family mentioned, except Boss of course.
He made his first appearance in season 1 where he was called Boss's cousin.
Cletus mentioned his Mama in season 2.
He is called Boss's third cousin twice removed in season 3.
Cletus mentions his Mama again in season 4.
