So I know the most regular panelists are no longer with us (Bret, CNR and Richard) but out of the panelist on the show who is still alive? I have been watching this on Buzzr a lot lately and it has me wondering.
The two most notable semi regulars living as of November 2015 would be Fannie and of course the timeless Betty White. Vicki Lawrence and Penny Marshall also make the list but were much less regulars. Who am I missing???

Joe has since died.
I saw a few episodes with Don Sutton this past week. Very good and somewhat entertaining.

In the same vein, fellow baseball player Joe Garagiola is still alive as well. Although he's almost 90!
He also holds the distinction of appearing on both the original Match Game in the 60s, and the better-known 70s version.

Only appeared for one week, I believe (unfortunate, because I thought he was surprisingly good), but baseball Hall of Fame pitcher Don Sutton is still alive.
(Edit: IMDb actually lists him as only appearing on one episode of the PM version, thought he did the day version too but could be wrong.)
