David Dortort ‘BONANZA’ PRODUCER


David Dortort, 93, who pro- duced “Bonanza,” “The High Chaparral” and other TV West- erns, died Sept. 5 at his home in West Los Angeles. No cause of death was reported.


“Bonanza” starred Lorne Green as the patriarch of a family that lived on the Ponderosa ranch in Nevada. The show was the first prime-time Western to be broad- cast in color at its debut in 1959. It ran 14 seasons and became one of the highest-rated shows on television. Mr. Dortort also was executive producer of “The High Chapar- ral,” which ran from 1967 to 1971; the 1979 miniseries “The Chi- solms”; and several later “Bonan- za” TV movies.


Glenn Shadix ‘BEETLEJUICE’ ACTOR


Glenn Shadix, 58, best remem- bered for his portrayal of a portly,


pretentious designer in the com- edy “Beetlejuice,” died Sept. 7 at his home in Birmingham, Ala. A cause of death was not imme-


diately known, but his sister told the Birmingham News that he had been using a wheelchair for mobility and appeared to have fallen in his kitchen and struck his head. Director Tim Burton cast Mr. Shadix in films including “The Nightmare Before Christmas,” “Planet of the Apes” and “Bee- tlejuice,” the 1988 horror comedy for which he is perhaps most widely remembered. In the film, Mr. Shadix starred opposite Winona Ryder and Mi- chael Keaton as Otho, a snooty in- terior designer who tries his hand at the occult to summon ghosts from the afterlife. Mr. Shadix’s Web site also de- scribes him as a photographer and gay rights activist; he spoke publicly about undergoing so- called ex-gay therapy as a teen- ager.

In Washington, he served on the boards of American Univer- sity and Sibley Memorial Hospi- tal. He was a member of the Cos- mos Club in Washington. Bishop Mathews was a mem- ber of the Methodist Council of Bishops, the Massachusetts Council of Churches and the Na- tional Council of Churches, and he served as chairman of the Methodist Committee for Over- seas Relief.

While Alana (Mini Mima) does her thing in independent style. They visit you at Mima's Park, the name they call your cemetery And vie to place red roses in the bronze vase, washed and ready.
