The last original Peanuts strip was published on Sunday, February 13, 2000, just hours after Charles Schulz died in his sleep on the evening of Saturday, February 12, 2000.
2/12/00: Died in his sleep at about 9:45 pm in Santa Rosa, CA. He was suffering from colon cancer, with which he was diagnosed in November 1999. He also had Parkinson's disease.

In the early 1970s, Schulz had an extra-marital affair with an unnamed woman. He allegedly made a homage to the woman by having Snoopy begin seeing a female beagle with soft paws.
A month after his death, the board of supervisors in Sonoma County, California (where Schulz had lived since 1969) voted to change the name of their commercial airport to "Charles M.

It went on to be the most-syndicated strip in history.
As a youth, he had a drawing of his dog appear in Ripley's Believe It or Not (1949).
