‘Today’ Honors Superfan Linny Boyette With Obit

Linny Boyette
For nearly 20 years his smiling face was familiar to millions of viewers: Every day, rain or shine, he was there on the plaza as ‘Today’ greeted America. His name was Linny Boyette, but he was perhaps better known as Today’s superfan.

Sadly, Linny passed away Sunday due to complications from a heart attack.

He was 71 years old.

"We actually get more viewer mail about Linny than any of our on-air team," said Natalie Morales. "And we understand because we love Linny too and we're certainly going to miss him."
