At first I didn't realize it was Richard singing so I watched it again...I am a puddle of tears. What a lovely tribute to a lovely couple. He will be missed forever & I hope she has gone on to find love again. ❤️❤️❤️
He knew it, the second he saw her. They were so happy. Reminds me of my wife and I. Cherish every moment together while you still have her. Forgive eachother while you can. And never stop saying I Love You, You know.
The most beautiful touching true love story. I've watched this a few times. Touches me deeply every time. Never heard this song before. I've seen pictures of her and their daughter with their daughter's friends. She aged well and beautifully.. Their love goes on through their daughter. Rare. They look very happy. Precious.
Richard Dawson is one of the nicest human beings on the face of the earth. That was rather touching, he, singing the love song to his wife. Richard Dawson deserved the wonderful things that GOD BLESSED him with he's truly a wonderful person Thank you for sharing that BEAUTIFUL LOVE STORY
I totally agree, Richard was so sweet..such a kind hearted man. I am so happy for both or them. That they found each other. Richard..Rest in Peace..among the Angels...
What's nice to, is the fact he met and fell in love with a (pardon the expression), plain, normal, down to earth person. He has been around hollyweird enough to know, that true love, trust and friendship are EXTREMELY RARE in his line of work.
Yes he did. I am a man that grew up watching Richard Dawson and he definitely had that look of real love not lust over this beautiful young lady. I am very happy that both found true unconditional love.🙏❤❤❤
Love this clip and they seem truly happy. What makes me sad is that nowadays, he'd probably be accused of all sorts of stuff. He seemed to be a extremely sweet guy
How sweet and heartwarming. Loved watching Richard on Match Game and Family Feud. When he was on Johnny Carson, to hear the story of trying to hook up with Gretchen was so interesting. Reaching the wrong number was just so bazaar. It is so sad to see him as a young man, then watch him age. (As we all do. :) ). The same was true of Charlton Heston, who also loved his wife deeply. RIP Richard and Charlton. Blessed be.
Beautuful. So sweet. He will be missed. His wife and daughter are beautuful. I know he left this world a happy man. I grew up watching the shows Richard Dawson appeared. Thank you for the lovely memories.
There will never be another Richard Dawson. He was a very kind loving man. Look up the last family fued. His statement at the end shows house love for all people.
such a beautiful love story. Have always thought Richard was a neat guy, now I know he was. From his early days on Hogan Heroes to the end of his life. He had that warmth about himself. I miss this type of personality now days.
Very touching video. I just watched an old FF and noticed he was smitten with a contestant, Gretchen Johnson. I looked Dawson up to see when he passed and saw in his bio that he actually ended up MARRYING her! WoW! You could see the sparks between them. I'm usually not the observant.
Oh, I wish I could have the same luck as Richard: to find someone who can love until my final days. How incredible is to find out that Richard met his second wife when she was a contestant. (I wish I could be a game show host. Nah, just kidding) But, anyway, is great seen this video and may all teach us that real love exists. Is just that we have to be more patient.
Always entertaining, always a thoughtful,human being. What an incredible man! For years Richard has been the best entertainer on television. There's never been a human being like him since! RIP and Thankyou for the great memories❤️🇨🇦
This is the kind of showmanship that is no longer available in today' hosts and is sorely missed. Richard Dawson had the talent and ability to draw his audience in - in a most natural and appealing way. Til we meet again,, sleep well Richard.
I just found out about this cuz he retired way before my birth but really such a lovely guy and this amazing love story, so happy to see them R.I.P Richard!
He was such a kind and loving man. I always thought he was very handsome. And so funny. I caught each episode of Richard and Gretchen to see him basically falling for her. Maybe she was falling for him too. But it is so fun to watch those episodes knowing he ended up with her and they have a daughter 'Shannon'. He said he was the happiest he'd ever ben. God Love him. He was a special man. ~Blessings~
I think he kissed her the most, of all the contestants. What a lucky girl. We envied Gretchen,who looks sweet and adorable💟 Always such a great admirable man,father,and actor. We loved you Dawson,and always will. RIP dear dear man💞
It doesn’t matter how old you are as long as two people are happy together Richard and Gretchen are proof of that like I said it’s between two people and that’s all that matters
Very sweet. Thank you So nice to appreciate a positive love story without seeing negative comments. As thumper said. If u can't say something nice..don't say nothin' at all
How beautiful. I think I will send it to my ex. Beautiful romantic song. (You others should record it. Richard sings to Gretchen. I had tears in my eyes. That is their daughter.
and how wonderful to be able to see this story played out in the most public arena there is...it's always magical when this kind of connection happens between two people
Today, I woke up from a nap to an episode of The Love Boat, seeing Richard Dawson singing this song. I thought is was so lovely, I had to see if it was on RU-vid so I could hear it again. And here it is. Just lovely.
