From Brad Farrell, who runs The Terrible Catsafterme wepage:
"I'm sad to report the passing of my pal Leonard Landy at the age of 84. He starred in 21 of the Our Gang comedies between 1938 and 1941. He was a super sweet guy and loved to show off an article I wrote about him based on interviews I did with him."
He was perhaps best remembered as the freckle-faced kid in the late-Roach/early MGM period. He was the boy who kept saying "Phooey!" in Hide and Shriek.

Now that we lost Leonard, it looks like the surviving Our Gang actors are now down to a trio. We know Woim and Robert Blake are still alive, but who is the other surviving actor?
R.I.P. Leonard.

I was informed on Facebook that there were well over 20 surviving actors left. But I was actually referring to regular cast members (i.e. Woim, Robert Blake, etc.,not supporting roles). I could of sworn there were only a very tiny number left, in terms of regular cast members?
