But one look at his social media platform, primarily Instagram, shows a man as lively as ever with a zeal for all the fun life has to offer. As the pandemic completely reshaped how major holidays unfolded, Van Dyke shared a post boasting about his zeal for Halloween. He credits Arlene Van Dyke with making it all work; their gated community became a safe drive-through Halloween party for celebrators to drive through. Naturally, with his "mutual love of Hallo’ween," Van Dyke participated.

He assured fans, "I have all my marbles." Actions speak louder than words and there's proof of this bold statement. Jeanie Cooke, who works as Danville Area Convention & Visitors’ Bureau's executive director, recalled the Danville native's visit to his roots four years ago. During his visit to Danville High School, students there broke out into the Danville High School fight song. "He knew every word. I thought that was remarkable," Cooke recalled.

This includes work and interviews with good-natured deprecation towards his past work. "They ask what part of England I was meant to be from," Van Dyke recalled when confronted about his infamous accent in Mary Poppins, "and I say it was a little shire in the north where most of the people were from Ohio.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Official Dick Van Dyke (@official_dick_van_dyke) Even with the criticism, Van Dyke can be seen in the 2018 Mary Poppins film. Already into his nineties, Van Dyke didn't let that stop him from doing a dance number on the desk, which he himself jumped onto without a stunt double.
