When did Richard Boone die?

Answer 1

Richard Allen Boone was extremely well-to-do if not wealthy. He was the first actor to have his salary spread out over a long period rather than receive a million dollars up front and have nothing left later. His multi-million dollar salary from HAVE GUN-WILL TRAVEL was spread over a 20 year period to minimize tax consequences. He had the same arrangements for MEDIC and HEC RAMSEY. Richard Boone was a trailblazer in many ways. Richard Boone earned millions during his lifetime and he invested wisely.

Claire MacAloon Boone, his widow, still lives in a lovely beach community, Ponte Vedra in Florida in a nice home.

Answer 2
