Frank Cady of 'Green Acres'

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Frank Cady , a character actor best known as the general-store owner on the sitcom " Green Acres ," has died. He was 96.

Cady's daughter Catherine Turk tells the Los Angeles Times that her father died Friday at his home in Wilsonville, Ore. A cause of death wasn't released.

Cady played Sam Drucker, one of the less loony denizens of Hooterville in "Green Acres." The show, about a Manhattan couple who left the big city to live in a rundown farm, ran from 1965 to 1971. Cady also played the same character in " Petticoat Junction " and " The Beverly Hillbillies ."

He also had a recurring role as Doc Williams on " The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet ."

He and his wife, Shirley, moved to Oregon in the 1990s. She died in 2008.
