[of wife Julie London, who played Nurse Dixie 'Dix' McCall on Emergency! (1972)] It was ideal for me, I've been working clubs for about 26 year in Los Angeles, Julie would be on the road, we have seven children between us, and on my day off, my kids would say, 'Daddy, stay home,' and Julie would say, 'Come to Cleveland,' and it was wonderful to be together.
[on how he met his wife, Julie London] The way I remember meeting her was this. I was playing the "Celebrity Room" and, one night, she walked in. I was singing a song and she walked by the bandstand and I thought, "That's one of the most strikingly beautiful girls I've ever seen". Fortunately I knew Kay Saunders, the girl she was with. Kay is the wife of Herman S. Saunders. Herm's a trio leader who's working as a casting director for Julie's ex, Jack Webb, although at the time he had a trio at the Bantam Cock. Anyhow, knowing Kay, I thought, I can easily sit down at the table and get introduced. So I was.
The best way to relax is not to relax. You must keep your body and mind active. This is the best way I know to stay free from hangups.

Troup died of heart attack at 80, webb of the same at 68
Blame Julie!
