Yeah, that episode was just replayed on this week's Friday Night Fix. The eerie thing is, it was scheduled to be played even before he died. /cue Twilight Zone music...

"Born in northern California on June 28, 1932, the son of migrant fruit pickers, Morita spent most of his early years in the hospital with spinal tuberculosis. He later recovered only to be sent to a Japanese-American internment camp in Arizona during World War II."

May the man rest in peace, indeed. It's sad that he died, though.
