Johnny Crawford, who played Chuck Conners’ son Mark McCain on the late 50’s/early 60’s classic Western series “The Rifleman,” died several weeks ago from Covid complications and Alzheimer’s. He was 75 y/o.
Prior to his stint on “The Rifleman,” Crawford was a Mouseketeer” on the Mickey Mouse Club, and, in 1962, he had a Top 40 hit with “Cindy’s Birthday.”
He was great as the son of Chuck Connors in “The Rifleman”.
Johnny’s hit in the 60’s, “Cindy’s Birthday”, is still one of my favorite songs.
R.I.P. Johnny Crawford
