Gavan John O’Herlihy
(July 29, 1951 – September 15, 2021)

(Daily News) – Actor Gavan O’Herlihy, perhaps best
known for being forgotten as Chuck Cunningham
on the 1970s sitcom “Happy Days,” has died. 

Variety reports O’Herlihy’s brother confirmed his
sibling died last month in Bathe, England, but
gave no cause of death.

On November 12, 1954, Ellis Island, the gateway to America, shut
it doors after processing more than 12 million immigrants since
opening in 1892. Today, tens of millions of Americans can trace
their roots through Ellis Island, located in New York Harbor off
the New Jersey coast and named for merchant Samuel Ellis,
who owned the land in the 1770’s.
