American actor Tom Lester has died after suffering complications caused by Parkinson’s disease. The US star was best known for playing farmhand Ed Dawson on classic sitcom Green Acres between 1965 and 1971.

He died at the Nashville home of his fiancée and longtime carer, Jackie Peters, on Monday and was aged 81, his family confirmed in an online post. “There will be a graveside service attended by family and close friends at noon on Friday, April 24, 2020,” the family announced, listing a grave site in Mississippi for the service.

Tom played Ed Dawson in 150 episodes of US comedy show Green Acres and is said to have landed the role against 400 other auditions in the early 1960s as he could milk a cow in real life.
