In the early 1980s Allan Melvin appeared as a regular in "Archie Bunker's Place", a successor to "All in the Family", in which he played the role of Barney Hefner. When this series ended in 1983, Melvin's work was exclusively devoted to cartoon voice-overs. Melvin died of cancer on January 17, 2008 at age 84. Ann B. Davis passed away on June 1, 2014. But Alice and Sam will live forever.
In "A Very Brady Christmas" Sam The Butcher was played by Lewis Arquette. Arquette died in 2001 due to congestive heart failure.
