Conrad Bain Dead At 89 (PHOTOS)

Posted January 16, 2013 by Rachel Samara for Global Grind Staff

We're sad to report that actor Conrad Bain, famously known as father figure Phillip Drummond on Diff'rent Strokes, has passed away at the age 89.

TMZ reports:

Bain family sources tell TMZ, Bain died Monday night in Livermore, CA. So far, details surrounding his death are unclear.

We spoke with Bain's daughter Jennifer who tells us, "He was an amazing person. He was a lot like Mr. Drummond, but much more interesting in real life. He was an amazing father."

Bain -- who became a household name starring opposite Gary Coleman and Todd Bridges on the iconic 80s series -- is survived by his three sons and one daughter. He also has a surviving twin brother Bonar Bain.

Bain's daughter says he spent his last few days with his family. Bain would have turned 90 on February 4th.
