(CBS Local) Kornfield Kounty will never be the same. That's because Frank Peppiatt, the co-creator of TV's iconic, long-running variety show Hee Haw, died this past week at age 85.

The cause was bladder cancer, and he passed away last Wednesday in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla.

Peppiatt's partner was John Aylesworth, who passed away two years ago. Both Canadian, Peppiatt and Aylesworth also worked together on a huge range of TV music shows, including The Andy Williams Show, The Jimmy Dean Show, The Sonny And Cher Show, and The Julie Andrews Hour. more on this story
