Pernell Roberts

Pernell Roberts Dead: ‘Bonanza’ Star Pernell Roberts Dead. Roberts died of cancer at his home in Malibu, California on January 24, 2010, aged 81. Roberts married four times. His first marriage was in 1951 to Vera Mowry, a professor at Washington State University, with whom he had his only child (Jonathan Christopher Roberts); they later divorced.

He married Judith Anna LeBreque on October 15, 1962 ; they divorced in 1971. His third marriage was to Kara Knack, whom he married in 1972; they divorced in 1996. Jonathan Roberts died in a motorcycle accident in 1989 at age 38. He was married to Eleanor Criswell at the time of his death.

Roberts recorded Come All Ye Fair and Tender Ladies, a folk music album which Allmusic calls “…the softer, lyrical side of folk music — pleasant and not challenging, but quite rewarding in its unassuming way.” The album has been released on RCA Victor LPM / LSP 2662 (1963), and was arranged by Dick Rosmini. The album presently is available on compact disc only as part of the fourth disc of the Bonanza 4-CD boxed set on Bear Family.

    I loved Pernell Roberts. He was my favorite on Bonanza and would write about him in my diary as a young girl. I was shocked and saddend to her about his death. I still cry everytime I think about it.
