Maurice Williams, the rhythm and blues singer and composer behind the classic ballad “Stay,” died on Aug. 6. He was 86, according to the North Carolina Music Hall of Fame’s announcement. Williams, who became a one hit wonder with the Zodiacs, wrote and performed music with other harmony groups throughout the 1960s. “Stay” rose to No. 1 on the Billboard pop chart in 1960, and was one of the shortest top songs of the era.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett.
