David Cassidy (Keith Partridge)
David Cassidy was a teen heartthrob material, so it makes sense that he was hired to play Keith Partridge in The Partridge Family. He became a celebrated teen idol and singer in the ‘70s as well. He appeared in Bonanza, Ironside, Adam-12, and Marcus Welby, M.D. as well. He ended up making 10 albums with The Partridge Family and 5 solo ones. He had tours and enjoyed Cassidymania! In 2015, however, he filed for bankruptcy.

David’s Diagnosis And Death
In 2017, he made headlines after appearing at shows looking disoriented and maybe even drunk. It was different, however, as he revealed that he just got diagnosed with dementia. Now 66 years, he said he expected this since his mother suffered from this affliction and succumbed to it at the age of 89. However, he later said that it was not true. He said, “[it] was complete alcohol poisoning – and the fact is, I lied about my drinking.” Unfortunately, the actor died of liver failure in November 2017 at 67 years old.
