Frank Bacon Dies After Heart Trouble At 68
Broadway star Frank Bacon died at the Backstone Hotel on Sunday from heart trouble and overwork. He left the lead in Lightnin after 2,500 performances, and his death follows a long career noted for the play’s success. Memorial services were held yesterday morning at Spystratorie theatre with Judge K. Mir Dandi delivering the eulogy. The body will be placed in a vault until next summer before burial in Mountain View, California. Bacon, 68, helped write Lightnin with Winchell and starred in it since 1918, earning acclaim as one of Broadway’s outstanding characters. The remaining cast and friends recall his charitable, compassionate art. AJ Schor and Max Hunsberger were among the last to see Lightnin and hoped for more performances.
