That is sad, though 96 years is more than I'd hope for, so he lived a very long and full life. I really enjoyed his character on M*A*S*H along with most of them, but I'm old enough to actually remember him on Dragnet, another good character of his.

Enjoyed watching him on many programs. 96 is a long life to celebrate. Its funny that when I watched him during the MASH years as a teenager, I thought he was old then, and that was a long time ago. You have to be a very fortunate person to live that long.
He was a good one. Just yesterday I played an old movie somebody gave my mom, The Glenn Miller story, and he was in it. I wondered at the time how he was doing. Low and behold he dies today. Didn't realize he was 96. Here's a pic from the movie.
I recently saw a movie on TCM that included Harry Morgan in the cast that was filmed in the 40s. He was never a major star, but he seemed to always get a character role in many flicks.
